Our Physics Masterclasses are events specifically set up to broaden Year 12 and 13 students' knowledge and experience.
Our masterclasses are targeted at Year 12 and 13 students studying Physics at A-Level. The aim of masterclasses is to help students to develop their physics knowledge, and to provide a taste of studying physics at university. Masterclasses are all-day events hosted in the Lancaster Physics Department and they consist of lectures and hands-on lab activities delivered by our researchers and PhD students. Each masterclass has a different research them, based on our own programme of research.
In addition to the research-themed masterclasses that we organise through the year, we also host one of the STFC National Particle Physics Masterclasses.
Students must apply individually to attend our masterclasses. All you have to do is complete our booking form, indicating which masterclasses you would like to attend. We will then contact you to confirm your place. We have limited funding to cover your travel costs. Please enquire for further details.
