"Physics at Manchester has a proud history stretching from the splitting of the atom by Rutherford over 100 years ago to the Nobel Prize winning discovery of graphene earlier this century. Today, we are a large and dynamic department offering an exciting programme covering the full range of physics, from fundamental particles to cosmology via everything in between, which is taught by a diverse range of leading researchers in their fields."

"Getting to learn about physics beyond classical mechanics interests me a lot and just getting a better understanding of the universe.”
“I like the open-door policy of Manchester and the fact that the lecturers and professors aren't necessarily always formal maintaining a good balance.”
“I am learning in depth about the field I am interested in and getting hands on experience from lab experiments."
