Our undergraduate physics program offers a unique and personalized learning experience. With over 150 academic physicists and small class sizes, students receive individual attention and tailored advice throughout their studies. The program boasts award-winning educators and an active physics education research and development program.

The Research School of Physics provides a diverse and cutting-edge research environment with opportunities for students to get involved in a wide range of research projects in fields such as Cosmology, Nuclear and Plasma Physics, Quantum Cryptography, and Electronic Materials Engineering, among others.

In addition to our classroom and research opportunities, ANU offers hands-on learning experiences through our ANU MakerSpace, a facility for all members of the ANU community to learn through making. The Makerspace offers access to state-of-the-art equipment, such as 3D printers, laser cutters, and electronics workstations. The Makerspace is a great way to apply the theoretical knowledge you gain in the classroom and develop practical skills that will be useful in future research and industry work.

The undergraduate laboratories are well-equipped and provide a hands-on approach to learning. The program also offers a strong Peer Assisted Learning program to help first-year students adjust to university study.

For those interested in pursuing research-focused or advanced degrees, such as the Bachelor of Philosophy (PhB) or the Bachelor of Science (Advanced), ANU has a long history of providing special opportunities and experiences throughout their degree. Join the community of physicists at ANU and gain the skills and knowledge necessary to make a meaningful impact in the world of physics.
