HERA, the only ep collider, operated in the years 1992-2007 at centre-of-mass energies of 300-320 GeV in Hamburg, Germany. Deep inelastic neutral and charged current scattering at HERA provides the possibility to study the structure of the proton, the dynamics of strong interactions and test quantum chromodynamics (QCD) over a huge kinematic range. Both, neutral and charged current interactions provide complementary information on the QCD and electroweak parts of the Standard Model. In addition, HERA data allow for indirect searches for new phenomena originating at large scales, however, no evidence for the new physics has been found. The full statistics of data collected at HERA have been used for most of the measurements performed by H1 and ZEUS which are presented in this document.
