| Summary, etc | Abstract: At Oregon State University, the curriculum for physics majors includes a new course called “Physics of Contemporary Challenges,” which serves as a bridge between lower- and upper-division physics at the undergraduate level. The narrative of the course is largely based on climate modeling and sustainable energy issues. We have chosen to emphasize these applied physics topics for three reasons. (1) Urgent real-world problems are a way to connect with students who come from a broad range of backgrounds. (2) The physics that we cover introduces key threads of modern physics (quantum and statistical mechanics) that students will continue to use in upper-division classes. (3) Physical reasoning skills are exciting to learn/practice using compelling real-world examples. Overall, we have found an excellent synergy between our learning objectives (specific physics topics and physical-reasoning skills), and the analysis of real-world challenges associated with climate modeling and sustainable energy. |
