About the course:
This course intends to impart to the student knowledge and skills to adapt to the student
life at Bilkent Physics Department. The course is structured as one hour contact per week
of the class with physicists from the department: faculty members and/or graduate students
and/or physicists from other institutions. These contacts are meant to let the students
know about particulars of studying and proper conduct while being a student at Bilkent Physics.
Discussions and other participation during the contact is strongly encouraged.
It is hoped that this course will also be helpful in developing a sense of belonging
to the department.
