Nexiversity opened in 1998 with four faculties and a stubborn idea: that undergraduates should be trusted with real work from the first term. Six faculties later, that has not changed.
Fundamental research in physics, chemistry, mathematics and the earth sciences.
The Faculty of Science treats undergraduates as junior researchers. Laboratory access begins in week one, and second-year students join a working group of their choice for a full academic year.
Our observatory, isotope laboratory and high-performance computing cluster are open to students at every level, and results from undergraduate projects are published alongside faculty work.
Undergraduate
From classical mechanics to quantum field theory, with real instrument time.
Undergraduate
Analysis, optimisation and modelling aimed squarely at real problems.
