Laurea in Fisica BSc (Hons)

The BSc Physics degree at Loughborough offers maximum flexibility to study optional modules from across our suite of physics courses. If you want to study the widest breadth of subjects, in our state-of the-art laboratories, then this is the course for you.

It can easily be argued that physics is the most important of the sciences in shaping the world around us today. Technologies such as the simple lightbulb to advanced technologies such as the mobile phone would simply not exist without this subject.

As a discipline, Physics delves much deeper and seeks to uncover the laws of nature. Physicists use their understanding of these laws to answer the biggest, most profound questions, and to develop new materials, new technologies and, indeed, new tools to further our understanding - from telescopes able to observe the far reaches of space to microscopes capable of viewing the world at the atomic-level.

In structuring the course, we have been motivated by and taken advantage of Loughborough’s research strengths in quantum physics, condensed matter, statistical physics and the physics of materials, making the core BSc Physics degree an exciting and academically outstanding course.

Here at Loughborough we take pride in offering an experience and creating a community that you can be proud to be a part of. That’s why we have been named University of the Year at the Whatuni? Student Choice Awards 2020. The Awards are based on reviews and ratings made by current students across the UK, so winning this award shows that our students are extremely satisfied with the services and experience we provide them with.

This isn’t the first time we’ve won the prestigious accolade either. We were also named University of the Year by the WhatUni? Awards in 2015 and again in 2018. We’ve also been named University of the Year in the Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide twice.
