Accredited Level 2 Physics Diploma

The Accredited Level 2 Physics Diploma course provides students with a solid basic understanding of Physics and how it relates to the everyday world that we live in. Included in the topics covered by the course materials are forces and motion, electricity, energy resources, magnetism, radioactivity and particles.
The course is designed to be accessible for those with limited scientific backgrounds, and as such is an excellent starting point for students wishing to learn more about Physics.

The course is a year in length and divided into 2 units of study. At the end of each unit there is an associated TMA (Tutor Marked Assessment) which students are required to complete and submit. The course is formally assessed by an average grade being attained from the 2 submitted Assessments.
