COURSE CURRICULUM

Mathematical Physics, you will take a balanced mix of Physics and Mathematics courses to build a strong foundation for advanced studies. Hands-on learning is emphasized through Physics lab courses, allowing you to apply theoretical concepts practically. You’ll also complete Science breadth courses to broaden your understanding as a scientist, alongside a Science communication course to develop your ability to effectively convey complex ideas. A highlight is the Modern Physics course, which provides an exciting overview of cutting-edge physics topics. Your Physics courses cover key areas like mechanics, waves, electricity, magnetism, and modern physics, supported by associated laboratory work to deepen your practical skills. Mathematics courses focus on algebra, calculus, and linear algebra designed for honours students, ensuring you master the critical mathematical tools needed for the program. Additionally, you’ll choose science electives from General Chemistry, Earth Sciences, or Biology, depending on your interests and program requirements, often accompanied by labs for experiential learning. Throughout the year, you’ll also participate in Physics seminars to engage with current scientific topics and discussions. This comprehensive curriculum is designed to equip you with a solid scientific and mathematical foundation, preparing you for the more specialized and advanced courses in later years of the Mathematical Physics program.
