They underpin all the sciences. This is a foundational unit in the Bachelor of Science Advanced (Honours) that builds on fundamental concepts developed in high school physics providing a deeper understanding of the physical processes around us. This unit provides a strong foundation in mechanics and other key physics areas including waves and relativity. The ability to critically apply scientific concepts and solve problems as a physicist, both in theory and in practice in the laboratory, will provide you with the foundation you need for future studies in science.
