Might need to take 5 courses in one semester. Are these courses too much?
I would have to take:
-Second year linear algebra
-Real analysis
-Mathematical modelling (a relatively easy course involving only high school calculus)
-Second year calculus
-Second year E&M.
A plan I thought of...
Does an astrophysicist in research areas such as cosmic structure and evolution, galactic archaeology, and/or black hole phenomena require extensive skills (i.e. undergraduate degree) in computer systems engineering/computer engineering?
The idea is to do a combined degree with computer...
There was a little trouble grasping a couple concepts/methods in topics like series, but that was most likely because I didn't study for maths. I did no homework at home for months, and instead did it in my free periods at school which wasn't enough time to complete it all. This was because I...
I don't see how. There's biophysics, but that's a very small field. And I wouldn't want to do something physics-related if I hadn't mastered undergaduate physics, in which case I would start biomedical science from the undergrad level... time is just an illusion after all ;) and I'm only 18 so I...
Yes, technically I'm able to get into the program.
And I don't know about a deficit, but I definitely don't have a natural mathematical ability, which is what I see in so many physicists (astro in particular). This is the root cause of concern and questioning of my ability to succeed in...
Inspiring! But to get into graduate physics I need more than passes (Ds to HDs) in classes like quantum theory. But I feel once I pass the threshold I'm currently at, I'll be at the same level as every other physics student out there. Would this be true?
In my final year of high school (2017) I finished with a mark of 74/100 for advanced maths (NSW, Australia. It's a calculus-based course and introduces differentiation, integration, series, optimisation, trig). This means I don't directly qualify for enrolment in the maths courses for the...
Hi all! I just graduated from high school this year and also got my offer for university next year! Exciting times.
The offer I got was for a combined degree in computer systems engineering and science (physics). I've attached a PDF of the program plan. My goal is to do an honours year and...
