Email for bath uni about reading list

Hi!
I'm hopefully starting a physics course in September and want to enquire about a reading list (I enjoy reading physics books so if I'm going to read some anyways they might as well be useful for my course)
I don't know which email to send this to- the admissions one which is listed at the bottom of the course website, the physics department which is at the bottom of the physics department page or the enquiries email. All of them say they can be used for course enquiries. If all of them can be used, which one am I likely to get the quickest reply from?

Thanks :smile:
The physics department. Admissions won’t be able to answer this.

If in doubt, send an email addressed to all three. Whoever’s first should likely reply all so it won’t waste anyone else’s time.
@McGinger Does Bath have reading lists for things like these or would the departments prefer applicants to just do some 'general' wider reading around the subject?

Idk if they have a specific reading list as I can't find it online like most unis so I was also going to ask if they have any recommendations

There are no 'pre-reading lists' - so best to just read-what-interests-you, do online Moocs etc, and have some time-off before it all starts again in the autumn.
