The module will cover the basics of string theory, and provide an introduction to the perturbative formulation of string theories. The topics that we will cover include the classical physics of strings, and the quantisation of bosonic and superstrings, perturbative aspects of D-branes, duality symmetries, and two-dimensional conformal field theory and its application to string theory. A brief discussion on some advanced topics in string theory will be given towards the end of the module.
