Degrees
Newcastle University offers 3 degrees:
Physics with Astrophysics
Bachelor's (3 years) at Newcastle University
Our three-year Physics with Astrophysics degree provides a strong understanding of the fundamental pillars of physics and a thorough grounding in advanced mathematics. You'll apply physics, mathematics and computation to understand the origin and evolution of the universe. Hands-on experience in our high-spec facilities is embedded throughout the degree and will develop your practical skills for a wide range of physical science careers. Guided by our world-leading academics, you'll study a broad range of cutting edge physics modules. In your final year, you'll specialise in astrophysics with modules such as relativity and cosmology, stellar structure and evolution and interstellar medium. BSc or MPhys? Physics with Astrophysics is offered at two levels: Bachelor of Science (BSc) Master of Physics (MPhys) Our MPhys degree includes an additional year of advanced study at master’s level, where you will gain a deeper understanding of the subject to prepare you for a career in this challenging field...

Geospatial Engineering
Master's (2 years) at Newcastle University
The Geospatial Engineering MPhil and PhD at Newcastle University aims to foster, promote and conduct research of international quality. We attract high-quality graduates and researchers and train them to international standards. Our research has significant relevance in non-academic settings. We often apply it through consultancy to industry. This includes: - the global offshore industry - local authorities - engineering and surveying companies. We are a key part of the TSB Satellite Applications Catapult North East Centre of Excellence. Examples of MPhil and PhD supervision in our research areas include: **Satellite geodesy** GPS and geophysical modelling GPS/GNSS geodesy precise orbit determination of altimetric and geodetic satellites sea level ice sheet mass balance satellite altimetry static and temporal gravity field and reference frame analyses from dedicated satellite missions SAR interferometry geophysical and industrial deformation monitoring geodynamics and geohazards integration of GPS and INS engineering geodesy **Geospatial Engineering** geoinformatics and advanced GIS geospatial algorithm development spatial modelling including network modelling, cellular automata and agent based approaches to spatial complexity multimedia cartography and information delivery temporal GIS geospatial data management airborne and satellite remote sensing applied to environmental impact assessment land use, vegetation and pollution monitoring Earth observation of urban systems photogrammetry laser scanning precise non-contact dimensional control...
