Advice for an Undergrad student wanting to become a theoretical particle physics
Hi guys,
I'm in the second year of my undergraduate degree at Melbourne University. The subjects I have done this year are: - Real Analysis - Vector Calculus - Group Theory & Linear Algebra - Quantum Mechanics & Special Relativity - Thermal & Classical Physics - Electromagnetism & Optics Next year I plan to do: - Quantum Physics (core) - Electrodynamics (core) - Statistical Physics (core) - Computational Physics - Laboratory subject (maybe) - Complex Analysis (Core) - Partial Differential Equations - Metric & Hilbert Spaces or Geometry I want to know if this sounds like the right plan for next year as I hope to pursue Masters after next year (our uni got rid of Honours) and then hopefully a PhD. In electrodynamics I know we look at tensors and want to know where I can find the resources to get an introduction to them before the start of semester next year. |
