Earth, Space Sciences and Physics (ESP 314)
About
EPSP 314 is a 2-week course that provides research-lab environment to learn and apply principles of Earth sciences, systems, physics, and space. Become immersed in 4 labs and classroom experiments that challenge conventional thinking. Design & propose experiments on ISS and grant proposals. ESPS welcomes STEM educators, undergraduates, graduates, and working professionals to better characterize, understand, and model materials, macro/micro systems in various environments on Earth and how it relates to other planets.
