Physics & Engineering
Welcome to the Physics & Engineering Club! This is where ideas accelerate and sparks (sometimes literally) fly!
We are more just a group; we are a dynamic force of curious minds, passionate problem-solvers, and hands-on learners. Officially, we go by the Physics and Engineering Club, but think of us as a two-in-one particle system: one part physics, one part engineering, held together by strong gravitational attraction (and a love for learning)!
Here, you will find a supportive network of peer leaders who each bring their own special relativity to the club, each with different strengths, styles, and personalities. Whether you are trying to wrap your head around oscillations or circuits, we’re here to help you reach escape velocity from confusion.
We offer help with all things physics and engineering, whether you are in foundation, diploma, or just falling into a gravity well of curiosity. And do not let our name mislead you because we are also charged up to help with math and chemistry too! After all, engineers and physicists are always expected to have a superposition of skills.
About Math… We know math can be a black hole sometimes. It pulls you in deeper the more you look at it. While we are not pure mathematicians, we can give you a more physical perspective on math problems. Our explanations tend to be a little less rigorous and a little more intuitive since we think of it as wave–particle duality: part math, part meaning. That said, if you are after full mathematical formalism, the Math Club is also a great place to orbit.
So whether you are stuck on a tough problem, prepping for a big exam, or just want to collide particles of thought, we’re here for you.
This is the Physics & Engineering Club, where momentum builds, and mass times acceleration means progress!
