The Physics and Astronomy undergraduate teaching laboratories were refreshed in autumn 2019 to include new 75" screens for more interactive teaching, latest-generation oscilloscopes, improved Wi-Fi and new, more comfortable laboratory setting.

Facilities include:

  • an observatory on the rooftop of the building, equipped with two high-quality telescopes
  • a specialist photonics laboratory with research-grade laser equipment
  • a £120m Cleanroom Complex which is home to exceptional photonics and nanoelectronics facilities
  • a dedicated physics library for independent study
