Quantum mechanics describes the ultra-microscopic world and behavior of objects such as atoms and subatomic particles that have helped create the modern world as we know it. The operations of semiconductor electronics, lasers, atomic clocks, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRIs) all function based on the principles and theories of quantum physics. Come learn about Schrödinger’s wave equation theory, Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, the concept of spin and the Pauli exclusion principle, wave-particle duality, and how these concepts are central to technologies we enjoy. If you like to theorize, this class is for you. *Gifted course, see Admissions Criteria for eligibility requirements.
