Credit: 3 hours.

A project-based, cross-disciplinary course for students interested in exposure to the frontiers of physics and experiences in the arts. Students will explore physics topics through active participation in a broad range of artistic practices and expressions. Students will practice project design; independent study; team work; and dedicated assignments. Projects will be presented through an end-of-semester event. Event and topics are specific to each offering and may include physics-based museum exhibits, artistic work, and/or performance pieces.

3 undergraduate hours. 3 graduate hours. May be repeated up to 6 hours in separate semesters, if topics vary. Prerequisite: Instructor Approval Required.

Students are expected to have a strong interest in both physics and the arts. Junior level course or equivalent in either Physics (or related field, such as Astronomy) or in the Arts (or related field, such as Design) expected. Research in any of these fields is preferred. A written description of the student's interest and background is required, showing the ability and inclination for interdisciplinary study and project work.
