This B.Sc. programme is offered within the School of Physical Sciences at C. K. Tedam University of Technology & Applied Sciences, a natural and applied sciences field. It accepts SHS graduates with General Science or Technical Studies backgrounds.
What applied physics programmes cover
In an applied physics programme, you typically study core physics topics like mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics. You also get substantial laboratory experience, learning how to design experiments, take precise measurements, and analyse data. Most programmes gradually move into specialist applications, such as optics, solid-state physics, or energy systems, alongside mathematical modelling and computational methods.
How competitive is entry
This programme is less competitive than many other science degrees, so entry is more accessible if you have a General Science or Technical Studies background. Your WASSCE results will determine your eligibility, and you should check the university's official admission requirements to confirm how they match up.
