This online school is aimed towards bachelor’s and master’s students from Bangladesh* who have completed basic coursework on Quantum Mechanics and Special Relativity.

The school plans to train students starting from basics of quantum field theory in both canonical quantisation and path integral quantisation, quantisation of non-abelian gauge theories and finally, the basic aspects of the standard model.

Student assessments will be based on the submission of attendance, problem set solutions and a final evaluation. Only students who have completed the requirements will be awarded certificates.

*Students outside Bangladesh are welcome to apply although a preference will be given to students from Bangladesh in the selection process.
