Advanced Physics Club for High School Students, grades 9-12. This club is intended for high school students (grades 10-12) who enjoy solving challenging physics problems.
It will not have a set curriculum; instead, we will solve and discuss problems from various physics Olympiads and competitions, ranging from Physics Bowl to the International Physics Olympiad (IPhO). There will be no formal instruction in Physics, so we expect students to have a basic understanding of physics. In the club, we will apply this knowledge to solving elegant physics problems, ranging from simple to very challenging.
The club will be run by faculty, postdocs, and students from Stony Brook University, many of whom are former participants of IPhO and other high-level competitions. The participation in the club is free of charge for all students. SchoolNova will initially cover all expenses necessary to cover rent, insurance, and other operational costs for the club. In the future, we will also seek additional sources of funding. Please, come and invite your friends to the club!
