PHYSICS TESTS AND COMPETITIONS

Here is a list of undergraduate physics competitions  1)  Online Physics Brawl : Online Physics Brawl is a three-hour-long internet competition. Teams of up to five people can participate. Eligibility : The competition is mainly intended for high school teams of up to 5 students, which includes the Open category where anyone can participate. (so undergraduates can also apply). Prizes : Top 3 teams in categories A, B, C, and one overall winner (including open category) will be awarded valuable prizes. Participation is free. Rules Conducting Institute : FYKOS (organization, problem sets), Institute of Theoretical Physics, MFF UK (rooms, hosting), Department of Applied Mathematics (hardware), Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports (co-announcer), and Interlos(the game engine) 2)  National Anveshika Skill Test : A short experiment will be shown in each video and questions will be asked based on the experiments shown. Based on the answers screening will be done to select students for Preli

Research internship

Internships often bring to mind TV and movie characters who fetch coffee and make copies. But internships are not about being the office errand runner. Internships offer unique exposure and insight into the industry and work environment, give you a hands-on experience in your field of study. It gives you the opportunity to gain practical skills, strengthen your CV, and make you more employable.  Who is it for?  Interns are usually college or graduate students. While interns are usually older students, like juniors or seniors, freshman and sophomores can seek out internships as well. Having several internships while in college can be very impressive to potential employers. What Do You Do? The daily tasks of an intern can vary widely, even within the same industry. It is largely dependent on your professors /mentors and the labs you get an opportunity to work in. In some internships, you may do mainly mechanical work, run errands or do repetitive experiments. But in others, you will be a

PART I 1.     Field and Focus             Have a clear idea about what you want and what is your preference when it comes to pursue a career in the same. One field is a very wide platform, research in it and combine the results with your interests and you’ll have your answer! Personally, I would suggest not to have just one aim. Be realistic and have more than one, because after your degree when you enter the market and try to get a job, the market may change. 2.      Selection of Entity             The selection of the country, academic institution(s), and intake is a key factor. It decides what kind of environment you will lie in, the quality of education you will get, and more. ·         Selection of Country This may not be as impactful as other criteria, but definitely is a factor worth some attention. Ask yourself questions like, will I be able to survive the climate? (Severe cold in Northern Canada or European Countries etc.)  Is my body adaptable enough? ·         Selection of U

Quantum Mechanics       BSc level MIT 8.04 Quantum Physics I, version by Allan Addams :  A   really good introductory course on quantum mechanics. This  course  doesn't  just  run  through  the  equations,  but  the  lecturer  focuses  on giving intuition about concepts. The lecturer takes 2 lectures to start with an actual equation. ( You can get the idea)( It doesn't mean that he doesn't cover technical  aspects  indetails).                             MIT 8.04 Quantum Physics I, version  by Barton Zwiebach : Barton Zweibach is a String Theorist from MIT and he is great at teaching. That is a perfect introduction to QM for someone who hasn't started the subject. If one is following a book like Griffiths,
