Physics with Particle Physics

About this course

Particle physics is the study of the fundamental constituents of matter and the forces through which they interact. It addresses the deepest questions that physics can pose: what is the universe made of at the most basic level, and what rules govern how those components behave? The discovery of the Higgs boson at CERN's Large Hadron Collider was a landmark moment in the discipline, confirming a key prediction of the Standard Model of particle physics, and the search for physics that goes beyond that model remains one of the most active and exciting frontiers in contemporary science. At Royal Holloway, this three-year full-time BSc covers the full range of a physics education while placing special emphasis on fundamental particles, high-energy particle detectors, and accelerator physics. You will build a thorough grounding in classical and modern physics, including quantum mechanics, ele
