Abstract
We present the invited lectures given at the Third IDPASC School which took
place in Santiago de Compostela in January 2013. The students attending the
school had very different backgrounds, some of them were doing their PhD in
experimental particle physics, others in theory. As a result, and in order to
make the lectures useful for most of the students, we focused on basic topics
of broad interest, avoiding the more technical aspects of Flavour Physics and
CP Violation. We make a brief review of the Standard Model, paying special
attention to the generation of fermion masses and mixing, as well as to CP
violation. We describe some of the simplest extensions of the SM, emphasising
novel flavour aspects which arise in their framework.
