Studies Definition and 220 Threads

Hey everybody, i am an undergraduate student of Civil Engineering. I'll be graduating in August 2007, hopefully. I am currently looking for Universities in Spain, USA and Canada for my graduate studies. I'll be focusing on Structural Engineering and Geomechanics. So far my list of...

I'm looking for information on General Studies at A-Level or references to sites with information (can't seem to find much). What does it involve? Does it include any (or much) maths? If so, at what level? Is it a well-respected qualification?

Hi All! I graduated in physics at 2005 in Hungary, Europe. My research field was Density Functional Theory, I was working on a DFT computational software. I also did some basic researches in Quantum Computation. Unfortunately, in Hungary these things are nat really needed, so I could not --...

Hi everyone, I've currently graduated from a good school on the west coast with a double major in chemistry and physics. I'm taking a few years off to help out with the family then it's right back into the books (which I am keeping up with). I'm going to graduate school for physics and...

I'm about to complete my Bachelor of Science in Physics and am interested in doing graduate studies in Canada. Any Canadian universities you can recommend for theoretical physics, in particular HEP and QG?

New to the forums. Im going to graduate in CompSci at the end of next spring, and I have been thinking about graduate studies. I have always had an awesome interest in physics, and I am going to tackle the Feynman lectures this summer. I was wondering is if anyone knows whether its possible...

Im interested in the fields of AI and robotics. Can anyone give me some guidance on the choice of universities for my masters? Thanks in advance!

This might seem to be a silly question. But is it possible to pursue a grudate degree in electrical engineering after I complete a bachelor's degree in physics? And if it's possible, do I need higher GPA than a person with bachelor's degree in engineering to get in? Thank you very much.

Can anybody enlighten me with some good weblinks on Applications of Nuclear Physics studies.

Studies in Biotechnology HELP! I am going to complete 12 years of schooling next year, finishing my 12th grade according to the american system, i would like to know how to pursue pure research in biotechnology after that , are any special courses available? what colleges, universities are good...

Some of my friends and I intend to move to Canada for graduate studies(computer science, biology, archeology, geology, environmental engineering), I really need as much advice as possible before getting there. Please help..Thanks --Souldina--

Is there anyone here studying chaos in graduate school? I have read a little on the subject and find it interesting. I cannot however, find many graduate schools offering studies in this field. (I know of only two, University of Maryland and Cornell) Also, what kind of real world applications...

Hello, I was reading a thread that was locked, so I wasn't able to respond, but I wanted to present some information on racial differences. I do not wish to debate the issue since I do not have the time, but I wanted to put this information out there for everyone who may wish to have it...

I just wanted to thank everybody that has helped me so far and will in the future. I know that I am new to this forum, but I want you to know how completely excited I am to have found a resource for help. The class I am taking is a lab format, in which we must essentially work on our own from...

Consciousness Studies: Priority Misdirected and Conclusions Fated? Consciousness seems to be at the heart of subjectivity. If so, then how can it be sufficiently externalized to observe in order to empirically "prove" what it is? The attempts to define consciousness in terms of how it...

Magnetism and magnetic force are typically explained by the resultant effect on moving charges. Is anyone aware of any reseach, studies or literature that quantifies the interactive forces between two or more magnetic objects without utilizing the effect on moving charges to explain interactive...

This thread could equally well be in Biology, but since genetics and hereditability have figured so prominently in the various IQ threads in this sub-forum, I feel it would a good place, and perhaps a useful resource. L. Luca Cavalli-Sforza, Paolo Menozzi, and Alberto Piazza published the...

Lately in a biomedical ethics class I am enrolled in, we've been discussing the underlying values and moral issues involved in testing on non-human animals. Most ethical theories advocating the use of animals in research run into trouble when they attempt to draw a line between humans, and...

Hey, I'm a 2nd year student @ warwick university (UK) currently studying a masters in physics. I eventually plan on studying for a PhD in the states in Astrophysics.. Not many people seem to know around here so I thought I'd give this forum a shot.. Which schools in the US are well known...
