The University of Lincoln opened the School of Mathematics and Physics in September 2014 as part of the College of Science. The school provides undergraduate and postgraduate education and conducts research in pure and applied mathematics, physics and astrophysics. The school is expanding its provision and is opening a new undergraduate Physics with Astrophysics degree from September 2023.
