I chose Birmingham for my PhD because it is a top-class university for Physics and Astronomy. Birmingham offered me a flexible research topic and lots of networking opportunities within collaborations all over the world. Maggie Lieu, PhD Physics and Astronomy.
Particle Physics is all about understanding the fundamental building blocks of matter and how they interact with each other. To do this, modern particle physicists build large experiments where the results of high-energy collisions between particles are studied. Now is a very exciting time in particle physics.
Physics with Particle Physics BSc (Hons) We are showing the minimum and maximum UCAS points scores that the institution has listed for all qualifications. However the lowest and highest scores required for this course may vary by qualification.
Around 10% of particle physics Ph.D.s in aggregate end up with permanent positions in academia yet a recent study shows that only 0.3% of people with physics degrees are unemployed. Those that do succeed in academia come dominantly from the top 20 programs. However, the process of getting a Ph.D. is far from a waste.
I have a PhD in particle physics. It was tough to finish. Take it one step at a time. You should be commended for thinking ahead but you'll be much better informed a few years into undergrad about whether or not a phd is for you.
PhD in Particle Physics and Nuclear Physics Introduction to the Program. The PhD in Particle Physics and Nuclear Physics is a 3 year program taught in English to international students. Students can start the program in September each year. About WHU - Wuhan University Wuhan University (WHU) is a top 5 University in China, located in central China in the city of Wuhan, with around 1500.
Graduate Studies The Centre for Particle Theory is a combined research group in the Mathematics and Physics Departments forming one of the largest particle theory groups in the UK. Both departments accept students for the Ph.D. or M.Sc. degrees.

Particle theory addresses a host of fundamental questions about particles, symmetries and spacetime. As experiments at the Large Hadronic Collider (LHC) directly probe the TeV energy scale, questions about the origin of the weak scale and of particle masses become paramount. Is this physics related to new strong forces of nature, to new.
Flavour physics describes the different types of matter particles (quarks and leptons) and flavour-changing interactions. We are striving to answer fundamental questions such as why particles have different masses and why the Universe is made of matter (or where is the anti-matter)?
The Standard Model of particle physics, which classifies elementary particles into several groups, is at the core of modern physics. In this model, three of the four fundamental forces of physics are described, along with gauge bosons, the particles that mediate those forces.
Welcome from Group Leader, Professor Joost Vossebeld. The Liverpool University Particle Physics Group is one of the most active in the UK. Its programme includes working at the energy and precision frontiers of physics and in studying the properties of quarks and neutrinos.
The Particle Physics and Particle Astrophysics (PPPA) group at the University of Sheffield is looking for excellent students to join our PhD programme. PhD studentships have a duration of up to 4 years. We have a few fully funded studentships of (most providing funds for 3.5 years) to be awarded competitively.
This course covers the basics of general relativity, standard big bang cosmology, thermodynamics of the early universe, cosmic background radiation, primordial nucleosynthesis, basics of the standard model of particle physics, electroweak and QCD phase transition, basics of group theory, grand unified theories, baryon asymmetry, monopoles, cosmic strings, domain walls, axions, inflationary.
Funded PhD Project (UK Students Only) This research project has funding attached. It is only available to UK citizens or those who have been resident in the UK for a period of 3 years or more. Some projects, which are funded by charities or by the universities themselves may have more stringent restrictions.
Particle theory involves both using and extending the most fundamental physical theories to understand the basic structure of the universe. On these webpages, you will find information about our members and their research activities, relevant local events and how to apply for graduate study.
