The International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP; / ˈ aɪ juː p æ p, ˈ juː-/) is an international non-governmental organization whose mission is to assist in the worldwide development of physics, to foster international cooperation in physics, and to help in the application of physics toward solving problems of concern to humanity.
By the 1964–1965 school year, about half the US students enrolled in high school physics (200,000 students, 5000 teachers) were reportedly using the PSSC course materials. [6] However, considerable resistance developed among some teachers to the disruption of traditional methods of teaching.
Images are stored in a 1-gigabyte solid-state data recorder and returned via an 8-Mbit/s S-band downlink. NigeriaSat-1 can image scenes as large as 640 x 560 km, providing unparalleled wide-area, medium-resolution data. The data will be used within Nigeria to monitor pollution, land use and other medium-scale phenomena. Launched on 27 September ...
In addition to the two primary forms of content, the PhysicsOverflow community also welcomes discussions on unsolved problems, and hosts a chat section for discussions on topics generally of interest to physicists and students of physics, such as those related to recent events in physics, physics academia, and the publishing process.
The Common Service Center (CSC) Scheme and the CSC Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) Company serve different roles within the Digital India initiative. [18] The CSC Scheme is a government program aimed at providing digital access points for delivering various government and non-government services, especially in rural and remote areas.
Granting CSc. was abolished in 1998 and replaced with Ph.D. or Th.D. (Czech: doktor) An applicant is required to have master's degree (or its equivalent, e.g. Engineer (Ing.) in technical and economic university programs or Doctor of Medicine (MUDr.), Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (MVDr.) in medical university programs), enroll in an ...
Okeke has produced 15 textbooks on physics and astronomy. [9] He is the author of Senior Secondary Physics. [10] He has made an immeasurable contribution to the development of academics, supposedly, responsible for producing around 3/4 of the Nigeria’s astronomers. [1] Okeke has been referred to as the Father of Astronomy in Nigeria. [2] [1]
Okeke was the Head of Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka from 2003 to 2006 and was the Dean of the Faculty of Physical Sciences from 2008 to 2010. [5] [6] She was the first woman to hold both positions. [7] Additionally, Okeke was the first female professor of physics in the eastern part of Nigeria. [4]
