Program Overview
This MPhys Particle Physics degree offers a unique opportunity to combine physics with a year studying abroad. You'll spend your fourth year with the international research team at CERN in Geneva and work on a project at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
We offer this flagship course to the best students on our
MPhys Physics
andMPhys Physics with Mathematics
degrees.Experiments at the LHC led to the Nobel Prize-winning discovery of the Higgs boson.
Experience at CERN will be recognised by research institutions worldwide, opening up a wide range of career and PhD possibilities.
While at CERN, you’ll work on one of the following experiments:
LHCb, which is investigating differences between matter and antimatter
ATLAS or CMS, both of which are broad research programmes looking for new particles
We’re the only UK university to offer a physics degree with an integrated 1-year placement at CERN.
