Modern Physics for the Curious

Have you wondered about the origin and workings of the natural world around us? Have you found physical science interesting but inaccessible because it was too full of math and jargon? Have you felt a pull to become more science-literate? If so, this seminar course is for you. Ideas on the menu may include: space and time, relativity, determinism & randomness, particle physics, quantum physics, quantum information, and the fate of the Universe. Students from diverse academic backgrounds are warmly welcomed. Restricted to first-year students. Not eligible for CR/NCR option.
