Course content

The Particles and Cosmos study path of the Master programme concentrates on the physics of the universe smallest constituents, its largest structures and history. The study path leads to exciting research areas such as Higgs physics and inflation, dark matter, physics beyond the standard model and more.

The programme starts with foundations in relevant experimental and data analytical tools (detectors, programming for physicists, statistical methods, ...), and a deepening of selected theoretical concepts. It then offers the students the possibility to dive into the concepts and methods in particle and astroparticle physics, cosmology, and neighboring relevant areas and technologies such as nuclear physics, accelerator physics and general relativity.
