Understanding scientific principles is at the core of Far Western University's BSc Physics curriculum, and it is through this fundamental approach that scientific knowledge and technological advancements have been achieved. Our scientific understanding of the physical universe is based on physics, one of the most fundamental of all the disciplines. It spans everything from subnuclear interactions to cosmic events like the Big Bang and aims to explain how matter, time, and space behave in the universe.
