Interested in learning how nature works at a level that is often deeper and more satisfying than you can find in other areas of science or in engineering? If so, explore physics — a discipline that's so much more than the study of matter and energy.

Course programme
Each semester, there may be three mini-courses covering the semester divided into thirds. They are open to all levels of Physics graduate students. Some mini-courses will assume at most an undergraduate physics major background, while others may have graduate level prerequisites at the discretion of the instructor. They are designed to expose all interested grad students to cutting edge research in physics and/or useful experimental and theoretical techniques. Mini-courses fall into two broad categories: those that emphasize a specific skill set, e.g., cryogenic techniques, and those that explore cutting edge topics, e.g., gravitational lensing.
Each mini-course has 1 unit of credit. Students are expected to have regular attendance. Each student will complete a final problem set or report. Some mini-courses will be graded PASS/FAIL, while others will be assessed with a letter grade. The grading policy will be decided by individual instructors.
