Astronomy Unit

The Astronomy Unit (AU) at Queen Mary, University of London, is one of the UK's premier centres for astronomy research and postgraduate education, attracting students, postdoctoral research fellows and distinguished visitors from around the world. Members of the Unit participate in a wide range of international research programs, including ground-based observations, space experiments, and theoretical work in a variety of research areas.

New School of Physics and Astronomy

As of August 1, 2011, the Astronomy Unit has merged with Physics to create Queen Mary's new School of Physics and Astronomy (SPA). The new School now offers new opportunities for research, an expansion of the undergraduate Astrophysics programmes with new undergraduate projects, and a strengthening of the existing M.Sc. in Astrophysics.
