A lecture on Higgs boson physics to highlight why it is necessary and how it looks like. I review the Standard Model and why a small electroweak scale is our strongest indication for an extended Higgs sector, that can be searched for by a precise study of Higgs properties. To this goal, I discuss effective field theories and how they capture the most relevant effects in large classes of scenarios beyond the Standard Model.
