Members of the Particle Physics Research Centre engage in a variety of activities, with the aim of presenting to the public both our understanding and the mysteries about the fundamental particles and forces of the Universe. We organize an annual Masterclass for 6th-form students, who come from several schools in London to hear about the basics and the latest developments in particle physics. The next masterclass will be held on March 3, 2010, details can be found here. We also give presentations at local schools and participate with poster and displays to several events, including the annual poster competition at the House of Commons.

Queen Mary Physics Department has consistently ranked in the top 15 institutes in funds received from the Government Science and Technology Facilities Council over the past few years. The department is well known for its support to students and the use of modern teaching facilities.
