General Relativity and Cosmology, will be taught in Spanish online from 2nd June to 8th Sept. 2023 by Daniel Galviz at Yau Mathematical Science Center (Tsinghua University) China, and ICTS (Tata Institute of Fundamental Research) India, and Esteban Chalbaud LIP-Coimbra (University of Coimbra), CERN (ATLAS). Physics students from different universities in Latin America will be trained in general relativity and its applications to cosmology. Every student will receive an ICTP-PWF certificate at the end.
The application procedure is now open (the deadline is on 19th May 2023).
Goals and deliverables
Help students in Latin America by teaching lectures on theoretical physics.
Help students to be familiar with advanced research topics in theoretical physics. Students will solve weekly assignments on these topics.
Top students without MSc./Ph.D. will be mentored to pursue studies abroad, giving advice and recommendations about scholarships at international programs.
