Complete amenities

Our campus has a complete array of amenities including a number of supermarkets, fast food restaurants, coffee shops, laundrettes, and a post office.

Outstanding in Physics

Our Physics Department is one of the most highly-ranked in the country; we were ranked 4th in the Guardian University Guide 2024 and 6th in the Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2024 for our undergraduate courses, whilst 98% of our research was ranked world-leading or internationally excellent in REF 2021.

Our facilities

We have a wide variety of state-of-the-art research facilities situated within the Department, including Ultra-Low Temperature fridges, a suite of three Isolabs, and are home to the Quantum Technology Centre.
