Abstract

The goal of this project is to prepare the student to do research in Particle Physics. To accomplish that, we complement her under graduated studies studying topics of interest to Particle Physics. Furthermore, the student will be engaged in a small project using precision electroweak data from LEP I in order to get acquainted with the day-by-day tools of the field. (AU)
