There is a profound connection between physics and mathematics. It is not simply that mathematics is a useful tool, but as put by Galileo Galilei: "The book of nature is written in the language of mathematics”. Loughborough University's Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Mathematics and Physics program is ideal for those looking to combine the logic and proof of mathematics with the fascinating insights into the physical world offered by the study of physics. The program gives students the opportunity to learn and think as both physicist and mathematician, providing an appreciation of the world around us through a deeper understanding of both disciplines. This stimulating program enables students to gain a deep understanding of physical phenomena combined with the rigor necessary to appreciate the mathematical foundations that underpin physical theories. Over the three years of study students will take modules in such areas as symmetry, conservation laws, electromagnetism, relativity, condensed matter physics, quantum physics and the physics of materials. In addition to the core physics programme students will take additional modules in pure and applied mathematics. The course culminates in a dedicated mathematical physics project.
