Nine University of California campuses placed among the top 150 universities in the world in rankings that focus on the quality of research and faculty released today (Aug. 15) by Shanghai Jiao Tong University. American universities dominated the 2014 Academic Ranking of World Universities, with UC Berkeley coming in first among public universities, followed…
A course appreciated because, in my opinion, do not reflect the usual cold present in other courses, and the issues are covered with utility and not simply because they like to say in the lineup. - Ioan Bartoli (Student) To constantly improve my know-how on the Internet, Master University is an excellent partner. In fact I can find useful courses for the job…
Astronomers have released a new baby picture of the universe. The all-sky image draws on nine years worth of data from a now-retired spacecraft dubbed the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP). WMAP launched in 2001 and from its perch a million miles away from Earth (in the direction opposite the sun) it scanned the heavens, mapping out the afterglow…
Remaining spring semester schedule March 24 - May 6 8:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Every Friday and Saturday while UT is in session the Department of Astronomy hosts free viewing on the Painter Hall Telescope. Both Friday and Saturday nights are open to the general public. Painter Hall is located at the corner of 24th street and Inner Campus Drive, just to the north…

Our researchers enjoy state-of-the-art facilities to support their subject interests, including specialist laboratories and world-leading analytical facilities. We focus…
Astronomy is really titillating and physics very fascinating subject and they counted as one of the most intriguing and adorable subjects to study. Now this disciplines very important in developing new modern technologies. Many universities develop their own way of teaching them to give high quality of knowledge. Here is a slight overview about the top universities…
Physiology is the study of how the body works, specifically, how cells, tissues, and organisms function. It is a biological science that provides the foundation upon which we build our knowledge of what “life” is, how to treat disease, and how to cope with stresses imposed upon our bodies by different environments. The Physiology major – Overview The physiology…
The University does not offer a separate undergraduate major in Astronomy. Students who intend to pursue graduate study in astronomy or space science are encouraged to major in physics, following the advanced sequence if possible, or in electrical engineering if the student has a strongly developed interest in radioscience. The course descriptions for these basic…
Faculty supervisors who train teaching or learning assistants Faculty who want to prepare colleagues to use best practices in physics teaching Educators who want to see transformed instruction in action Educators who want to improve their own teaching Overview Periscope provides physics faculty, graduate teaching assistants, and undergraduate learning assistants…
The Crow Observatory is open to the Washington University community on clear evenings, Monday through Thursday, during the fall and spring semesters. When we are on standard time, the open hours are 7:00 - 10:00 pm. When we are on daylight saving time the hours are 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. The location is atop Crow Hall on the northeast corner of the WU Hilltop Campus…
The graduate PhD program in Physics & Astronomy is a small, personal, yet challenging environment where graduate students will receive advanced instruction and guidance to grow as independent research scientists while using unique research facilities in astronomy and physics. The strengths of the program lie in a faculty committed to excellence in instruction…
Diverse, progressive and centered in one of the most influential cities in the world, UCLA is a truly international university that offers a world of opportunity. Consistently ranked among the world s top-tier universities and powered by extensive resources, a renowned reputation and — most important — the will to make a real difference in the world, the result…
Studying theoretical physics involves an in-depth analysis of concepts like string theory and astrophysics. In addition, however, it requires a close understanding of related fields such as calculus and astronomy. As such, many of the strongest universities for undergraduate theoretical physics are interdisciplinary in nature, offering students strengths beyond…
