Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Physics with Astrophysics (Sandwich Year)

Program Overview

Studying the universe is a pretty tall order but we’ll support you every step of the way. Not only will you study underpinning core physics but you’ll get to apply it to fascinating astronomy concepts including extragalactic astronomy, stellar evolution, cosmology and space science.

Optical telescopes in our on-campus observatory, radio telescopes and solarscopes are all available for you to use alongside the theory. Together with teaching from our expert staff and small lab groups you’ll be developing technical and problem solving skills that are vital for employers.

Why choose this course?

  • You’ll benefit from excellent teaching. We’ve been awarded a gold rating in the government’s Teaching Excellence Framework.
  • You’ll join satisfied students. We get consistently high satisfaction scores in the National Student Survey. In the most recent survey (2021), we were in the UK's top 20 for student satisfaction in physics.
  • You’ll learn in inspiring environments. We have a custom-built, on-campus observatory recognised by the International Astronomical Union, a radio telescope, a CT scanner, new microscopes, MRI scanners, a scanning tunneling microscope and an ionising radiation laboratory. This ensures that you get the practical experience you need to pursue a successful career.
  • You’ll study innovative accredited courses. Our pioneering courses and research are carried out in close collaboration with university and industry partners worldwide, giving our students skills and knowledge which are highly relevant to the needs of industry. Our undergraduate MSci and BSc physics courses are accredited by the Institute of Physics (IOP) which will help you to achieve Chartered Physicist status sooner.
  • You’ll help to deliver research with impact. Our physics staff contribute to research activity in a number of areas including Superhydrophobic Surfaces, Medical Resonance Imaging, Art Conservation and Space Weather. Every year approximately ten of our students undertake paid summer placements in these research groups, giving them hands-on experience of cutting edge research groups. NTU has recently been awarded the Queen’s Anniversary Prize for research – the highest national award achievable.
  • You’ll have the opportunity to get experience. Our courses offer the opportunity to apply for a placement in the UK or abroad, giving you the real-life experience employers are looking for. Recent year-long placements have taken place at CERN, E.ON, The Netherlands Forensic Institute and Diamond Light Source. There are paid summer placements in our research groups, where you get hands-on research experience.  Our students have also undertaken paid summer placements in local secondary schools and at British Antarctic Survey.
