Astrophysics - Virtual Camps

Students will delve into the depths of the cosmos to push their understanding to the very frontier of the unknown, and perchance beyond that! Students embarking on this adventure will be introduced to the wave-particle duality of light, radiation and stellar evolution, illuminating their curiosities in the process. They will then explore advanced topics in cosmology such as supermassive black holes, spacetime fabric and mapping the large-scale structure of the cosmos. Studies will culminate with Einstein's Theory of Relativity. The curriculum is supported by computational simulations of dark matter and galactic formation, demonstration, student-led discussions and thought experiments.
