Prospects in Theoretical Physics (PiTP) 2011
Institute for Advanced Study
July 18, 2011 (All day)
Prospects in Theoretical Physics is an intensive two-week summer program designed for graduate students and postdoctoral scholars considering a career in theoretical physics. The 2011 program, “Frontiers of Physics in Cosmology,” took place from July 18 to July 29. First held by the School of Natural Sciences at the Institute for Advanced Study in the summer of 2002, the PiTP program is designed to provide lecture courses and informal sessions on the latest advances and open questions in various areas of theoretical physics.
