Overview

Key facts:

Physics is the science of the physical world at its most fundamental and general levels. Physics students learn a wide variety of topics, including the mechanical laws governing the motion of objects; the laws of electromagnetism that give rise to electricity, magnetism, and light; the origin of heat and temperature; and the quantum principles affecting the behaviour of atoms and sub-atomic particles.

Applied Physics is a discipline specializing in the technological applications of the latest discoveries in physics. It lies at the frontier of technology development, where new devices are developed and tested. The work of applied physicists has led to the invention of important technologies such as semiconductor electronics, lasers, high-capacity hard disks, light-emitting quantum dots used in next-generation display screens, and more.
