Course Overview

The BSc (Hons) Physics with Particle Physics at Royal Holloway, University of London is a undergraduate programme designed for students passionate about understanding the physical world. Based in Egham, England, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 3-year full-time structure. With the discovery of Higgs Boson, and as the search for Physics beyond the Standard Model continues at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, the study of particle physics remains more topical and relevant than ever before. On our three-year Physics with Particle Physics BSc course, we’ll cover everything found in our Physics course (F303/F300), but with special emphasis on the underlying Physics of fundamental particles, high-energy particle detectors and accelerator physics. You’ll join a field trip to CERN as part of the course. International tuition fees are £29,900 per year, home/UK fees are £9,535 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 6.5 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 92% student satisfaction rating, a median graduate salary of £27,500 within three years, and a 100% continuation rate.
