Physics Lecture Series 2013 - Optical Quantum Technologies
The weird world of quantum mechanics is the most tested theory in science, but what is it actually good for in our macro world? This presentation will delve into how quantum systems are going to flourish in the future, focusing in on the area of precision measurement, which is at the heart of all quantitative science and high-performance technologies. Find out how our experiments with photons are demonstrating quantum-enhanced measurement precision approaching the absolute limit allowed by the laws of physics.
New grading schema
From 2013 the University is replacing the current descriptive grading schema (HD, D, C, P, F, etc) with a numeric grading schema (7-1) for courses commencing after 1 January 2013. Go to the Exams and assessment website for more information.
Adapting to the Future Normal
An interactive workshop looking at the future of the workplace from the personal and company perspective.
Going green: the role of goals
Professor Kerrie Unsworth, University of Western Australia will outline a series of research projects that examine how our goals relate to what we do in the workplace and particularly, how juggling these things affect whether we engage with pro-environmental behaviour.
