What will I learn?

Physics with Astronomy and Space Science seeks to apply the fundamental laws of Physics to explain observations of the Universe, made using ground and space-based instrumentation. The degree is primarily a Physics degree with specific modules on the applications of Physics and will develop your skills in problem solving, data analysis, computation, and experimental techniques.Physics with Astronomy Space Science is one of the degree subjects available through the Physics stream in the common entry Science course.Students study similar modules for all degree subjects in the Physics stream in first year and will study modules for a minimum of two degree subjects in second year. At the end of second year, students choose their degree major. Assuming students meet all the academic requirements in first and second year, students are guaranteed a degree subject from the stream they are studying in second year. We do our best to ensure that students go on to study their top degree subject choice. As we offer plenty of degree subjects in each stream, students have a number of similar degree subjects to choose from as their degree major. This is a sample set of modules that a Physics with Astronomy Space Science student could study each year in UCD.Length of Course:4 Years
