The Physics with Particle Physics and Cosmology degree is for students seeking a deeper understanding of the smallest particles, their fundamental interactions and their role in how the universe began and may develop. This draws on the expertise of Birmingham particle physicists and astronomers engaged in cutting-edge research at CERN and other international laboratories and observatories. For this degree you study core physics subjects, such as classical and quantum mechanics, electromagnetism and relativity, but in addition you have specialised courses in particle physics and cosmology. Another feature is that students can visit CERN during their second or third year and have a tour of the laboratory guided by Birmingham physicists who work there.
