Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Occupational Therapy] From University of Plymouth

Oxford has one of the largest university physics departments in the UK, with an outstanding and very diverse research programme in six sub-departments:

• Astrophysics
• Atmospheric, Oceanic and Planetary Physics
• Atomic and Laser Physics
• Condensed Matter Physics (including Biophysics)
• Particle Physics
• Theoretical Physics.

Physics at Oxford is challenging and mathematical with a strong emphasis on fundamental concepts such as optics and relativity. The fourth-year courses bring you to the threshold of current research, and can lead to subject specialism. An accepted student can also opt to complete in three years with a BA. The department is equipped with state-of-the-art lecture facilities and teaching laboratories. Tutorials give students direct and regular access to physicists actively involved in research and provide an opportunity to explore scientific ideas with experts in the field.

More than 40% of Physics graduates go on to study for a higher degree, leading to careers in universities or in industry or in research and development, technical consultancy, manufacturing and science education. Many others enter professions unrelated to Physics, such as finance and business, where the analytical and problem-solving skills they have developed are highly sought after.
