Quantum Fields, Strings and Gravity (M.Sc. / P.Grad.Dip.)

The Quantum Fields, Strings and Gravity is a one-year, full-time taught M.Sc. programme is run by the School of Mathematics at Trinity. The degree offers advanced education in modern High Energy Theory and Mathematical Physics. The topics include string theory, conformal field theory, general theory of relativity & cosmology, quantum field theory and lattice gauge theory.Students will have an opportunity to discuss cutting-edge research and perform their own M.Sc. dissertation work under the supervision of the School of Mathematics staff, who are world experts in the field. The aim of the programme is to give undergraduate students an excellent opportunity to advance their knowledge and skills up to a level required for doctoral level research. Graduates typically go on to Ph.D. study both within Trinity’s School of Mathematics and at top international institutions abroad.

Applicants are expected to have achieved a Second-Class Honours (2.1) in a Bachelor's degree in Theoretical Physics or Mathematics or Physics with a strong Theoretical Physics component.
