Description
Students examine the structure and evolution of the Universe, focusing on how stellar and galactic processes shape cosmic systems over time. They explore the life cycles of stars, the role of black holes, and the development of large-scale structure, and relate observational evidence to underlying physical processes. Students apply conceptual physics principles to interpret and explain modern astronomical phenomena. Students do not use advanced mathematics.
Students will receive credit for only one of ASTR 1102 or 3311.
Prerequisite(s): Any 15 university-transferable credits. This course is not intended for first-year students.
Note: This course is not intended for students transferring to UBC's Faculties of Science or Applied Science.
