School of Physics

Faculty of Science, The University of Melbourne

The School of Physics investigates the natural laws that govern the universe, from the smallest particles to the fate of the cosmos itself.

We study and build advanced materials and technologies that transform our world and take us to the edge of human knowledge. We develop the next generation of leading physicists and engage with young people and the wider community.

We are committed to inspiring, informing and collaborating to ensure that our work brings broad benefits to society.
