About Astrophysics And Environmental Science - Bsc (hons) in Keele University

In Astrophysics, you will learn to formulate and tackle problems – from below the level of the atomic nucleus to astronomical scales.

Keele will help you to use astronomical observations, mathematical models and computer simulation to develop theories explaining some of the most complex phenomena.

You’ll develop your mathematics and computing skills, and apply them to solving a range of problems in the laboratory and beyond (you’ll have access to Keele’s own on-site observatory). We are committed to supporting you throughout your studies, providing you flexible access to our staff to seek advice or feedback.
