A level in Physics

Loughborough College, United Kingdom
Save

Course Overview

The A-Level in Physics course builds on skills and knowledge gained at GCSE and covers a range of topics that give students a greater insight into principles and concepts underlying the physical world.

Specifically, we look inside the atom to the minor constituents of matter; and in year 2, we look at the most crucial idea of all; the exploration of the universe.

We cover mechanics, electricity, fields, gases, and nuclear physics along the way. So if you are curious about the world around you and enjoy maths, physics could be for you.
