Taught Modules
-
PH-026 Foundation Mathematics for Physicists II
This module provides the extended mathematical techniques, including introductory calculus, necessary to access and succeed in foundation¿level physics for students lacking advanced A¿level mathematics.
-
PH-117 Practical Physics
This module develops students¿ experimental, analytical, and problem-solving skills across a range of physics topics. Students will engage with classical mechanics, optics, waves, thermodynamics, and electromagnetic phenomena through carefully designed laboratory experiments and skills workshops. Emphasis is placed on understanding and analysing experimental uncertainties, applying statistical and numerical methods, and effectively communicating scientific results. The module also fosters professional skills, including ethical conduct, teamwork, and critical reflection on learning and assessment. Students will gain experience in both individual and collaborative projects, preparing them for advanced laboratory work and quantitative analysis in physics.

PH-117C Ffiseg Ymarferol
Mae'r modiwl hwn yn datblygu sgiliau arbrofol, dadansoddol a datrys problemau myfyrwyr ar draws amrywiaeth o bynciau ffiseg. Bydd myfyrwyr yn ymdrin â mecaneg glasurol, opteg, tonnau, thermodynameg, a ffenomena electromagnetig drwy arbrofion labordy a gweithdai sgiliau sydd wedi'u cynllunio'n ofalus. Rhoddir pwyslais ar ddeall a dadansoddi ansicrwydd arbrofol, gan roi dulliau ystadegol a rhifiadol ar waith, a chyfleu canlyniadau gwyddonol yn effeithiol. Mae'r modiwl hwn hefyd yn meithrin sgiliau proffesiynol, gan gynnwys ymddygiad moesegol, gwaith tîm, a myfyrio beirniadol ar ddysgu ac asesu. Bydd myfyrwyr yn cael profiad o weithio ar brosiectau unigol a chydweithredol, gan eu paratoi ar gyfer gwaith labordy uwch a dadansoddi meintiol ym maes ffiseg.
