I'm interested in theoretical particle and mathematical physics. The grad schools that I'm considering applying for are all in the U.S. - but it has come to my attention recently that Cambridge DAMTP might be a very good program to apply to given my interests. I was wondering whether anybody here could tell me more about the program (especially by comparison to programs in the US). Is there any coursework involved as in American grad programs or do you start research right away? What resources are available for grad students in the department (e.g. is it easy to get financial support to attend conferences?) What is the general ambiance there like and interaction with advisors and other faculty? What are the postdoc prospects like with a degree from there? Any other feedback would also be great...
