From particle physics and quantum information, to cosmology and astrophysics, our scientists push forward the frontiers of knowledge

Teaching is enriched by internationally-recognised research, enabling our students to meet the highest standards demanded by industry and academia

Our vision spans a wide portfolio, from emerging fields such as nanotechnology and superconductors, to world-class research in elementary particle physics and theoretical physics

We contribute to the public understanding of science through talks and demonstrations at schools and colleges

An expansive refurbishment is transforming Physics into a high quality working environment, with new high specification research laboratories and teaching facilities

BCFN is run jointly by Physics and Chemistry and is training the next generation of nanoscientists through innovative training courses and exciting research projects
