Below is a list of the topics that I have studied in year 1 and a brief description of what each topic is about.
Communication Skills: This course is vital in teaching
us how to communicate our ideas scientifically and clearly.
Examples
of topics are: Writing a report; Writing an informal letter; Creating
a website; Writing a short essay; Writing a longer essay.

Mathematical Methods I: This consists of learning
the maths needed in our course. Much of this is an extension to A-Level
Maths.
Examples of topics are: Differentiation; Integration; Vectors;
Sequences and series; Complex Numbers.

Mathematical Methods II: Again, this is covering
the maths needed in the physics course. It is more advanced than Mathematical
Methods I.
Examples of topics are: Differenctial equations; Differential vector
operators; Coordinate systems; Matrices; Special Relativity.

Classical Mechanics: This teaches us what we need to
know about Newton's laws of motion and all the laws which have sprouted
from
this. It is essential in out understanding of physics as it provides
us with knowledge of the laws of forces, mass, motion, momentum, energy
etc... which play such a vital role in physics!
Physics of the Universe: This taught us about physics
of our observable Universe, from as small as neutrinos to as big as...well...the
Universe!

Thermal Physics: Do you like Physics? Do you like Chemistry?
Then you'll love Thermal Physics! It deals with thermodynamics, interactions
of molecules, ideal gases, heat, work, entropy and
much more!
www.cmmp.ucl.ac.uk/~als
Waves, Optics and Acoustics: This course deals with
waves of all sorts - waves for sight, waves for sound, and even waves
for the Sea! It teaches us about light diffraction, interference, etc...
It also teaches us about lenses, mirrors, among other things.

Laboratory Work: Every week we attend the laboratory
for seven hours of laboratory work, where we tackle different projects,
producing a write up for each experiment in our log books as we do them.
Furthermore,
we are required to complete two formal reports for two of the experiments
(of our choosing). Some of the experiments are designed for us
to verify known physical laws, and to calculate values of constants.,
etc...
