About the Program

The International Master of Advanced Methods in Particle Physics (IMAPP) is a joint degree programme offered by the University of Bologna (Italy), the University of Clermont Auvergne (France) and TU Dortmund University (Germany), and it is supported by internationally renowned partner institutions. The main focus of the programme is on experimental and theoretical particle physics. Methodologically, the programme is based on three pillars, each of which is associated with one of the three universities. These are machine learning and statistical data analysis, instrumentation and detector physics, and large-scale scientific computing and programming. Training in these aspects is the second focus of the programme. The students entering the programme study as a cohort and attend courses together at the University of Clermont Auvergne (first semester), TU Dortmund University (second semester) and the University of Bologna (third semester) over the course of the first three semesters.
