| | | 03 | Physics and Astronomy | |
| | | | Physics is the study of the laws governing the states and properties of matter and energy. Astronomy is the study of the celestial bodies, their positions, motions, distances and physical conditions, and their origins and evolution. Skills learned include: applying knowledge of physical laws to practical problems, analysing and interpreting data resulting from experiments to test theories and hypotheses, applying appropriate laboratory techniques and procedures to research. The main purpose of this field of study is to develop an understanding of the fundamental properties of the universe and the laws which govern their behaviour and to assess and validate physical phenomena to reach conclusions and determine further areas of investigation, and to present these in written and oral form.
