In this programme, you will gain an understanding of the fundamental principles that govern the structure of the entire physical world, through the mathematical theories and experimental data that reveal the physics of the known universe. Among other things, the Master’s programme will provide you with specialised knowledge of the standard model of physics, including its fundamental potential to explain the basic principles of physics, as well as its limitations. You will gain insight into the research that strives for explanations outside the framework of the standard model, e.g. with regard to the universe’s dark matter. You will also get an opportunity to immerse yourself in research on the quark-gluon plasma, the extremely energy-dense matter which characterised the early universe.
