About our courses
Learn about the incredible universe we live in from experts at the Royal Observatory Greenwich.
Our range of engaging evening classes including courses for every level, from short beginner courses in astronomy all the way through to one and two-year qualifications in advanced astrophysics.
Students at the Royal Observatory get to study in a unique environment supported by a range of equally unique resources, including expert tutors, a state-of-the-art digital planetarium, and the country’s largest lensed telescope.
And if you can't join us in person in Greenwich, we also run a range of online courses, including Introduction to Astronomy, Introduction to Astrophotography and Life in the Universe.
Plus, everyone taking a course is also entitled to a 10% discount on books purchased from Royal Museums Greenwich - please check with your course tutor for more details!
