Key Summary

    About: The Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Physics provides a robust foundation in both disciplines, exploring concepts, theories, and applications. Students engage with mathematical models and physical laws, gaining skills that prepare them for scientific challenges. The course emphasizes analytical thinking and problem-solving, enabling students to work effectively in a variety of contexts.
    Career Outcomes: Graduates can pursue diverse career paths, including roles as data analysts, research scientists, or educators. Opportunities exist in sectors like engineering, finance, and academia, allowing for a wide array of professional options.

Introduction

Traditional mathematical physics degrees in Ireland have been narrow in their scope. This course seeks to provide a genuine mixture of the two subjects. In addition to developing core and advanced mathematical skills, training will be provided in fundamental physics spanning mechanics to quantum mechanics, and in state-of-the-art applications of physics such as nanotechnology.

The analytical training and broad physical understanding of challenges likely to be encountered in an industrial setting will prove to be a valuable asset for prospective employers. The applied aspects in particular will ensure that, on graduation, you will be at an advantage in comparison to more traditional Maths Physics graduates, when seeking employment in the smart economy. In such an economy envisaged by the Government, academic and industrial research will be closely coupled.
