Course description and aims
We will discuss how much Doraemon's world can be realized in the next 100 years. Through the discussion, we study the modern physics, namely relativity, quantum mechanics, etc. We will overview current research topics in the fundamental and applied physics area.
Student learning outcomes
The goal is to achieve the overall understandings of modern physics, which will help students to study physics in more particular areas.
Keywords
Relativity, quantum mechanics, statistics, modern physics, Doraemon
Competencies that will be developed
| Specialist skills | ✔ Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Class flow
Overview various fields of research on physics with two different faculty members.
