PhD in Particle Physics and Accelerator Technologies

The doctoral programme prepares specialists in high-energy particle physics, accelerator technologies and related areas including particle detector technology and accelerator physics. Students build a strong theoretical grounding in their chosen study direction to support scientific research, alongside skills needed for scientific work, including computing, programming and computer-aided design. The programme centres on research activity through which students develop the abilities needed for a research career, including the opportunity for a long-term attachment at CERN.
