Abstract

In this brief review the following topics are discussed:

Direct searches for SUSY in mSUGRA: a brief review of the relevant mass limits, the clean trilepton signal, the hunt for the third generation of sfermions,

Direct searches beyond mSUGRA: search prospects in models with nonuniversal gaugino masses, search prospects in models with nonuniversal scalar masses,

Indirect searches for SUSY: precision electroweak observables and SUSY, ε′/ε and SUSY.
