Short, intensive physics/math courses

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on the need for short, intensive physics and math courses, specifically targeting high undergraduate to low graduate levels. Eric seeks in-person courses offered by universities or private companies, emphasizing a duration of 1-3 weeks and a strong focus on specific topics. Notable resources mentioned include the U.S. Particle Accelerator School (USPAS) and the Perimeter Institute, which offers graduate-level seminars and lectures. Participants are encouraged to provide URLs and course names to build a comprehensive list.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of undergraduate-level physics concepts
  • Familiarity with graduate-level mathematics
  • Knowledge of course structures in higher education
  • Awareness of online and in-person educational resources
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the U.S. Particle Accelerator School (USPAS) offerings
  • Explore courses available at the Perimeter Institute
  • Investigate short-term physics courses at major universities
  • Look into private companies providing intensive math and physics training
USEFUL FOR

Students, educators, and professionals in physics and mathematics seeking intensive, short-duration courses to enhance their knowledge and skills in specific areas of study.

Hello,

I'd like to create a list of short, intensive physics and/or math courses offered around the world. I'm primarily focuses on the U.S. as that is where I live but for the sake of completeness, anywhere would be good. The courses I'm looking should be short, usually 1-3 weeks in length and highly focused on a specific topic (and very intense). The level should be high undergraduate in physics or low graduate. Any math courses should be somehow related to physics or engineering. Please provide at least the name of the course, a URL would be very helpful.

Thank you very much for your time.

Eric

Thank you jedishrfu. I apologize for being a little unclear.

The courses I'm looking for should be in-person, taught at either Universities or by private companies. An example would be USPAS (U.S. Particle Accelerator School) @ http://uspas.fnal.gov/.

Thank you,
Eric
 
This is from Perimeter Institute: http://pirsa.org/search

You can achieve lots of seminars and lectures,most of them are graduate level. But there are the ones, you can find them easily, which are for the new students that will enter some kind of a qualification exam there. They are highly intense as you seek.

Hope to enjoy.
