Chemical Physics examines the intersection of chemistry and physics to understand the fundamental principles that govern matter and energy. At Lisburn University, we explore how the laws of physics apply to chemical systems, and how this understanding can lead to advancements in technology, medicine, and materials science.

In class, your professor might present a challenging physical chemistry concept or a real-world problem, such as the behavior of molecules in a reaction or the properties of materials at the atomic level. You and your classmates analyze, model, and discuss these scenarios, exploring the underlying principles of quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, and kinetics. Then, you apply your newfound knowledge to solve practical problems in experimental setups or simulations.
