Content
The course will cover the Standard Model of Particle Physics from the theoretical and from the experimental perspective. The gauge theories of electroweak and strong interactions and their experimental tests will be described. The present status of the Standard Model, open experimental questions, and some directions of beyond the Standard Model physics are discussed.

Table of contents:
1) Introduction to QED
2) Experimental Tests of QED
3) Phenomenology of weak interaction
4) Electroweak Langrangian
5) Higgs mechanism and mass generation
6) High precision tests of the Standard Model
7) Test of the Flavor Sector
8) Strong interaction
