Overview

Did you know that the UK has been home to several key developments in particle physics? From the detection of the pion at the University of Bristol in 1947 to the role British scientists played in the discovery of the Higgs boson at CERN, it has a rich history steeped in particle physics.

This course, Particle Physics stands as a testament to this history, inviting you to plunge into the world of elementary particles and unravel the secrets of the nucleus.

Learning Outcomes:

  1. Developed a fundamental understanding of particle physics and its core concepts.
  2. Gained a comprehensive knowledge about the different types of elementary particles and their properties.
  3. Acquired a deep understanding of the structure and function of the atomic nucleus.
  4. Grasped the principles and applications of nuclear physics.
  5. Understood the working and uses of particle accelerators and radiation detectors in particle physics.
  6. Familiarised themselves with the Standard Model of particle physics and its implications.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
