Topics could include mechanics, electronics, astrophysics, and particle physics. And we’ll also study solo and collaborate, supporting our work with examples, problems, and the scientific method for immersive learning. From minuscule particles to the Big Bang Theory and everything in between, understand the patterns and behaviours of the Universe, what’s gone before and what’s still to come on our thought-provoking Physics course.

Students will reside in one of Cambridge University’s most iconic colleges, including Fitzwilliam College, Sidney Sussex College, and Corpus Christi College. Accommodation will be assigned based on room availability and the student’s age group.
Learning in a small group (no more than 8 students and often fewer) means that you get quality time with your teacher and ask as many questions as you like! Through interactive learning, our teachers will guide you through new concepts and assign you practice tasks to build your knowledge and skills. You will also have an opportunity for group work, independent research, and homework assignments to be discussed in class. Small classes mean everyone gets to have their say, and students learn from debating with one another, as well as from their tutor.
