Astro-Physics, Particle Physics etc.

:sl:

I intend to study Physics at University,inshAllah. I will be taking a gap year to develop some skills before I take on University work. Just to help to gain an insight.

I have to fill in my UCAS application thing and I don't know what subject/topic of Physics I should take. I know there is stuff like 'Particle physics, astro Physics.'

Could someone list the various Physics topics and what they are about. InshAllah.

JazakAllah in advance

salams sis i dunno how it works in ur country xactly... btu i think dere'd be like a standard set of subjects studetns take in their first year? or lookup their courseguides, they would hav that stuff im sure.

wat do u mean by particle physics? u mean the quantum stuff? or u mean kinematics/kinetics of particle systems?

I don't know what I meant by that myself. I used it as an example.

I have decided that InshAllah, I will be taking Physics and Mathematics (combined).

:w:

[lolwatever]

u sure u can take a combined degree in one faculty :? and endup with full major in each?

i thought u can only do combined degrees which are cross faculty.. e.g. sci/arts (yuck) or eng/sci etc...

coz i enquired about majoring in two discipliens from one faculty n they said das not possible.. unless i do pgrad...

I have looked at several Universities and the one I really want to go to has:

Mathematics and Physics

I assume it IS combined...

I hope your not trying to out me off!

huh i swear i'm tryin 2b helpful :rollseyes

das cool then......... math is part of sci faculty at my uni das y i was confused....

i was inquiring about majoring in management n economics which is a totally idff faculty so that maybe xplains it..

Management and economics? Sounds a mouthful. Have you filled in the UCAS? I haven't. :w:

application to various universities. Don't ask me to elborate...its a headache. :D

Sis lolwatever...stop it!

Out of interest, are there any other brs or sisters who are hoping to take mathematics and physics OR have taken it.
Hope to take the course: Are you looking forward to the course?
Have taken the course:How did you find the course?

[lolwatever]

engineerin count :?

[Ameeratul Layl]

:sl:
Yes brother, it does.
I am hoping to take a gap year and THEN attend uni in which time I hope to have some work experience. One of the ideas were engineering.

Do tell me.

I have applied to 5 Unis for Civil Engineering, thats got a lot of Maths and Physics.

:w:

engineering is more useful than straight science.... in my opinion... allahu alam :) but then again, maybe math/sci is good for sisters... u can do things like research n stuff when ur bizzy with family in future or something... which might be less intensiv than engineering :? but eng is so wide u can endup in something dat'd suit ur situation nicely too....

I had to do some physics subjects in first year... physics rocks! im not majoring in it or anything though...

in first year we do like a standard physics subjects where we just cover a bits and pieces from all the different topics (we cover a LOT of material though!), thats good cos you dont have to worry yet about what you want to major in...

i really enjoyed the subject- electromag is the worst i hate it, but the rest is cool

btw particle physics is a bit different to quantum but they over lap heaps (quantum is hard! the maths is scary, but alhamdulilah they use computers to do it)

[lolwatever]

umm engineering is veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrry mathematically intensive actually. Plus it's more than just physics.... coz u cover things like materials engineering, thermofluid, control system (which is electro stuff i guess) and tonnes of otehr things...

and its not high school chem or high school physics... u really do use every bit of math u learn in uni.... differential equations (first, second.. and higher orders), integral calculus, complex numbers.. sequences n series... phasor notations... u name it

ameerah ill pm u one of my lecture slides, ull like it :D since ur a math person :p
