Life in the Cosmos
Are we really alone in the Universe? That's a question that has been asked across the centuries and is always evolving.
The course will discuss all the environmental circumstances that seem to encourage the start of any life form and investigate the current state of our knowledge of life outside of the earth.
To investigate this exciting possibility you will first look at your own world and how life evolved; drawing on areas of biology, chemistry, geology and palaeontology. Once you have understood what is required to support life, we can begin looking at other planets, such as Mars, to search for evidence of places that could or have sustained life.
The course is designed for students who do not have an A-level in physics or maths. -

Light and Matter
The course provides an introduction to modern optical physics to arm students with a basic knowledge of light-matter interactions, electro-optics and nonlinear optics. It aims to provide a fundamental base for understanding the techniques and technologies of photonics and experimental quantum optics, while also drawing together and developing many more basic and beautiful aspects of physics. -

Likelihood and Bayesian Inference
This module develops methods for conducting inference about parametric statistical models. The techniques studied are general and applicable to a wide range of statistical models, including simple models for identically distributed responses and regression models, as well as many more complex models which may be encountered in other modules. -

Linear Algebra for Physics
Linear algebra is the branch of mathematics focused on linear equations, their solutions, and many topics naturally connected to these, such as matrices, vector spaces, inner products, and more. Physicists use linear algebra to describe an enormous number of phenomena, including some of the most important and fundamental, like normal mode oscillations, particle collisions, stability analysis, and more. This module covers the aspects of linear algebra used most commonly in physics, with examples from mechanics, electricity and magnetism, relativity, and more. The aim of the module is to provide students with an expanded skill set for solving problems in physics, and in the process, to reveal the deep and profound connections between different areas of physics.
