This course will teach you the basics of quantum physics. From the quantisation of energy, we will explore the idea of a wavefunction, learn about entanglement, the uncertainty principle and how they are used for teleportation and quantum computers.
Introduction to the Energy Transition is a course that covers an increasingly important issue with respect to climate change, ecology, energy policies, supply disruption, and competition for energy.
How old is the universe? How unusual is the Solar System? How will it all end? Oxford astronomers Chris Lintott and Robert Simpson provide an overview of the last 13.7 billion years of cosmic evolution, answering these questions and more.
Explore how pets think, feel, and behave. This course introduces the science of animal behaviour, welfare, and human–animal interactions, equipping you to assess wellbeing and support better lives for companion animals.
Explore black holes, from stellar birth and cosmic collapse to singularities, Hawking radiation, and cutting-edge discoveries at the frontier of physics.
Building unites represent the foundation basis any physical structure. Across species living on our plant share a common basic building unit, the Biological Cell. From bacteria to human, we will explore the beauty and diversity of the living cell.
How does the stationary nature of plant life necessitate its connections with other living things? The course will explore plant behaviour as positive, negative, and neutral interactions with microbes, animals, plants, as well as humans.
Everything you wanted to know about fossils - from the very first life (the 'weird and wonderfuls') to the multitude of life through geological time. The main groups are covered, how they lived, how they died and environmental information they provide.
Investigate the power of maps and spatial data to document and illustrate local and global issues. Learn how to use Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to explore the world around you and share ideas.
In a world of endless multitasking, our brains struggle to allocate attention. This event explores the neuroscience of attention and distraction, the impact of digital technology, and how we can use science to reclaim our focus and flow states.
Part-time over five weeks, this tutor-led training course can be taken from anywhere in the world. It will appeal to students and practitioners who want to improve their ability to conduct bird surveys.
