King's College London

We will teach you through a combination of lectures and laboratory classes, tutorials and project work. All of our academic staff are involved with the undergraduate teaching course.

Typically, one credit equates to 10 hours of work, e.g. 150 hours work for a 15-credit module. These hours cover every aspect of the module, including independent study.

Problem solving and project work is an important part of this course, and you’ll learn about teamwork, group organisation and the skills of oral and poster presentations.

You’ll be assigned a personal tutor to support your development and our Department encourages an atmosphere in which students feel able to easily approach academic staff. Our Student-Staff Liaison Committee provides a forum for the exchange of ideas and feedback on teaching. Staff and students are members of the Maxwell Society, which is the department of Physics’ social and lecture society.

We will use a delivery method that will ensure students have a rich, exciting experience from the start. Face to face teaching will be complemented and supported with innovative technology so that students also experience elements of digital learning and assessment.

This course is primarily taught at the King’s College London Strand and Waterloo Campuses.

Our Department is located on the 7th floor with views over the Thames to the London Eye and Westminster. This central location gives you easy access to major libraries and many leading societies, including the Institute of Physics, as well as the extensive cultural and social offerings of one of the world’s most vibrant and dynamic cities.

Courses are divided into modules. You will normally take modules totalling 495 credits.
