PSI Lectures/BlockList

PSI consists of four phases of coursework and a short research project. The course will advance:

Preparatory topics: mathematical tools, numerical methods and theoretical physics concepts relevant for the subsequent phases of courses Core Topics: foundational graduate-level subjects, including quantum theory, general relativity, quantum field theory, statistical physics, and condensed matter Review courses: modern topics from fields such as cosmology, particle physics, gravitational physics, string theory, quantum information and condensed matter. Explorations courses: cutting-edge research topics from various specialized fields. [link]

Front courses (2009-now)

edit

Does It worth getting some standard courses out of this list. Like QFT, GR, QM etc? Not sure. The sorting is pretty sufficient.


This list majorly includes Front and Core courses, the Review and other Sections are not included. Also some years were omitted partially or completely. For instance, Core courses for 2013-2016 are not included. Also there is some strange list of the courses in the construction zone
