Physical Sciences

Did you know that Physical Sciences students at Murdoch are making carbon nanotubes, lightweight materials 200 times stronger than steel?
That’s the potential of Nanoscience, one of the fascinating Physical Sciences degrees at Murdoch.

Since mankind first discovered flint and fire, the biggest leaps in free-thinking have arguably been in the realm of Physical Sciences.

People working in these fields help the world understand how the universe works, they help us all see what we can’t see. Discoveries in Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics and Statistics, Nanoscience and Atomic Energy help mankind control its environment.

And of course, discoveries in the field of Sustainable Energy Management help us do that with integrity and foresight.

If your calling is towards the Physical Sciences, you can rest assured that your job prospects are bright. It’s estimated that worldwide employment in the renewable energy industry alone (wind, solar, biomass and geothermal) will be approximately three million jobs in the next two decades.

In WA in particular, the range of occupations in which you can apply your Physical Sciences degrees are diverse as the periodic table.

Whether your goal is to collect a Nobel Prize in Stockholm, or to help provide renewable energy to a small village in Botswana, read through the range of courses we have available and see what you can discover.
