It allows you to spend 8 months working with a research project on the LHC, and be right at the cutting edge of experimental particle physics.
It is perfect preparation for a PhD in the field.”

MPhys Physics with Particle Physics (with a year abroad)
We embrace physics from quarks to cosmology across three research groups in Astronomy and Space Environment Physics, Quantum Light and Matter and Theoretical High-Energy Physics. Our teaching is research-led, which means that our students learn from the best.
Our world-leading status has been confirmed in the Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2014:
