Studying the Universe at A-Level


Cosmology (the study of the Universe) is a very popular choice of study within A-level Physics. Students study the creation and evolution of the Universe as well as studying the birth and death of stars (Red Giants, White Dwarfs, Supernovae and Black Holes). The students also complete a short presentation on some aspect of the course and these presentations can be viewed by you as part of your GCSE revision tasks. We also organise a trip to Jodrell Bank Science Centre in Cheshire for a series of lectures by professional astronomers and to view the famous Radio Telescope.
