The Faculty of Mathematical and Physical Sciences encompasses the logical, experimental and mathematical study of our Universe. Front-line research feeds directly into our teaching programmes, and
our students benefit from access to first-class laboratory facilities.
The faculty offers an
array of three-year BSc and four-year Masters-level MSci degrees in
emerging as well as more traditional academic areas.

Sunjammer, scheduled for launch in late 2014, is a NASA space
probe that will carry the largest solar sail ever flown. The mission is designed
to demonstrate the long-term potential of solar sails for spacecraft
propulsion. In addition, Sunjammer will
demonstrate the utility of sails to provide the earliest available warning of
dangerous solar storms threatening Earth, and carry a payload of scientific
instruments to study space weather. More...
