Mission and vision

The School of Physics and Advanced Materials' mission is to produce work-ready graduates with a high-level of technological skills, and to undertake internationally recognized research connected to socially relevant problems

Our graduates are outstanding professionals who are highly valued and actively sought by industry employers. Physicists are excellent at developing sophisticated instrumentation, technologies and computational tools for solving complex problems.

These technologies find application in a wide range of contexts and environments. For example, the latest techniques in bio-imaging have been developed by physicists, or computational models of complex physical processes that are now being applied in the financial sector
