The Master of Physics course at UWA is about understanding the world at its most fundamental level.
The knowledge generated through the study of physics is also the driving force behind most new technologies, from radars to lasers, from transistors to quantum computers, and from electron microscopes to advanced medical imaging scanners.
Astrophysics is focused on the study of the physical nature of stars and other celestial bodies, and on the application of the laws and theories of physics to the interpretation of astronomical observations.
It uses the whole Universe as its backyard to unveil the physics of the extremes: extreme densities, temperatures, scales, etc.
This is achieved by taking advantage of the most complete set of skills available to scientists: physics, instrumentation, signal processing, computing, mathematics, engineering, etc.
As a student, you will be able to develop all these skills through hands-on training, exposure to cutting-edge research activities, and the ability to solve some of the most outstanding open problems in the field as part of your research dissertation.
Specific research projects are available across many areas of astronomy (both theoretical and observational), astronomy engineering and high-performance computing.
