14 July - 01 August, 2025
Introduction
The National Centre for Physics has started a program to improve the knowledge base and teaching skills of educators at the Masters/BS level. The focus of the program is to address the issues being faced by teachers in concept development and in problem solving as a basic part of physics education. Each Refresher Course consists of 02 Modules. The first Module of third Refresher Course was conducted in July-August, 2024. In continuation, NCP will organize the Second Module of the Third Refresher Course, at its premises, from 14th July to 1st August, 2025. The course will consist of lectures, problem solving sessions, discussions and demonstrations of teaching experiments conducted by experienced faculty members from NCP, QAU, CUI and LUMS.
- The current Module will cover 3 major disciplines at the B.S. level, namely
- Mathematical Methods
- Quantum Mechanics
- Thermal and Statistical Physics
- This will be an intensive course with six hours of interactive sessions each day. Selected participants are expected to engage with full commitment. Performance and active participation will be assessed throughout, and certificates of participation and achievement will be awarded based on these evaluations.
- As seats are limited, selection will be based on the applicants' academic background and teaching experience.
