General Description

In this class, you you'll learn

  • how to conduct an experiment, collecting data with special attention to estimating systematic and statistical measurement errors,
  • how to model the data,
  • and how to present your work through scientific writing.

These three aspects essentially define the course. Each lab will be evaluated based on how well the three aspects are realized.
