Mathematical Physics
| School: | University of Saskatchewan |
| Faculty: | College of Arts and Science |
| Degree: | Bachelor; Honours |
| Field of Study: | Theoretical and Mathematical Physics
|
| Description: | Mathematical physics connects mathematics to physical phenomena. Its tools allow us to describe how a top spins, how a pendulum swings or how a rattleback rocks and defies normal intuition. Studying mathematical physics reveals the hidden intricacies of relativity and quantum theory.
You will study conceptual, mathematical frameworks that describe or explain physical phenomena. You will learn how one builds theories of physical phenomena, accounting for physical features which are then expressed in precise mathematical terms. The deductions of the theory capture essential aspects of physical reality. |
