Overview of our Research

In Physics our vision is to create an inclusive welcoming environment that inspires students and staff to address important current and future challenges facing society using physics.
Our mission is to generate new knowledge and to progress the life-long employability of students by:

- Providing effective educational programmes,
- Performing leading-edge research,
- Demonstrating insightful applications of physics.

We believe in research-led teaching. Our teaching programmes are strongly influenced by the expertise of research–active staff who are fully accessible to students. Our specialisations have evolved to be aligned with astronomy, climate change, and medical physics. The impact we make in these areas is greatly enabled by photonics –the ability to harness light. Physics also benefits from theoretical physicists located in the neighbouring School of Mathematics, Applied Mathematics and Statistics.
