The IMSc Foundation Series 2025 in Theoretical Physics is a week-long academic initiative organized by the Outreach Team at the Institute of Mathematical Sciences (IMSc), Chennai. The program is scheduled from 23rd to 27th June 2025 and will offer three intensive short-term courses at the MSc Physics level tailored for early-stage physics students from Chennai and nearby regions. The courses will be delivered by renowned academicians from IMSc Chennai, aiming to bridge the gap between coursework and research. Through these engaging lectures, participants will gain insights into the Master's level topics from a research perspective. Our goal is to inspire the next generation of physicists and encourage them to pursue careers in academic research.
Participation is open for final year Bachelor students and first year Masters students. Interested students should apply for participation.
Note that we might need to be selective on the participant list in case of large number of applications. The list of participants will be announced by 18th June 2025.
Quantum Mechanics: T. R. Govindarajan (Krea University, IMSc Chennai)
ElectroDynamics: D. Indumathi (IMSc Chennai)
