Physics is the fundamental pure science and plays an important role in all the natural sciences. Physics can be defined as the science of matter, motion and energy. The ultimate aim of the learner in physics is to find a string of laws that are reliable, self- sufficient and connect to each other at some level. Physics reveals the mathematical beauty in the universe at scales ranging from subatomic to cosmological level.

Studying physics strengthens quantitative reasoning and problem solving skills that are important in areas beyond physics. Students who study physics are prepared to work on forefront ideas in science and technology, academia, the government or the private sector. Careers might focus on basic research in astrophysics, cosmology, particle physics, atomic physics and photonics etc.
