Course Outline
The IB Physics courses aim to develop a thorough grounding in both theory and experimental techniques, which complement each other as they do in the wider scientific community. Higher Level students develop a high level of mathematical sophistication; and learn to complete extended calculations, but as all IB students study Mathematics this should be seen as an advantage. Higher Level Physics ideally leads to studying a Physics related course at University, which would require students to also study Higher Level Maths. Standard Level students also learn good problem-solving skills, which would benefit them in any future career...
