Bachelor of Science (Honours) majoring in Physics and Geophysics

Adelaide University

With a Bachelor of Science (Honours) majoring in Physics and Geophysics, you’ll explore everything from earthquakes to quantum mechanics.Study how matter, energy and Earth systems interact, and apply physics to understand geological phenomena. In your fourth year, tackle advanced topics and complete a major research project guided by expert scientists.Build strong analytical and practical skills through lab work, fieldwork and real-world modelling. Graduate ready for careers in energy, defence, space, or research – or take the next step into postgraduate study. Physics and Geophysics combine to explain the workings of our planet and the universe. In this Honours degree, you’ll apply physical principles to understand Earth’s structure, natural processes and dynamic systems – from atomic particles to seismic waves.Build core skills in physics, geophysics and mathematics while learning to model, analyse and interpret real-world data. Use computer simulations, field measurements and lab-based experiments to explore how the world works.
