Geneva Physics Program

Boston University’s Geneva Physics Program, in cooperation with CERN and the University of Geneva, brings students directly to the cutting edge of modern physics. With classes at the University of Geneva and directed research at the CERN, straddling the French/Swiss border just outside of Geneva, students will work with the world’s leading physicists to explore the universe on the level of its most basic constituent particles.

Physics students at CERN

Students do an intensive French language course, Computation for Experimental Particle Physics, and a research project at CERN.  In addition there are the academic courses offered by the Geneva University Science Faculty.

Upon successful completion of the program students can earn 19 Boston University credits.
