We show that if the Standard Model gauge fields and fermions propagate in extra dimenions, a composite Higgs field with the correct quantum number can arise naturally as a bound state due to the strong gauge interactions in higher dimensions. The top quark mass and the Higgs mass can be predicted from the infrared fixed points of the renormalization group equations. The top quark mass is in good agreement with the experimental value, and the Higgs boson mass is predicted to be ~200 GeV. There may be some other light bound states which could be observed at upcoming collider experiments.
