We're now in the midyear break, so that means no classes, no assignments (unless you're in a year-long course, of course), and so no error bars.

We'll see you at 2nd Semester Market Day, and failing that, regular error bars will be on again next semester. So good luck on results, and we'll see you then!

Welcome to the 2008 website for PAIN, the UQ Physics Student Society.

Feel free to take a look around the site via the menu to the left¹, we have plenty of material if you're new or curious about the society, and if you're a returning member, we have information on the Error Bars for this year for something new.

Error Bars will take you to a brief description of what error bars are and where they're held, but if you already know all that, just use the popout submenu to find the subpages so you don't have the annoyance of having to go through all that every time. The same goes for the Apocrypha page.

There's a 2nd Semester physics subject which is aimed both at physics students, and students who like physics but don't study it. All you need is a background in highschool mathematics.

Unfortunately, this course wasn't advertised this year, so we thought we'd let you know about it.

It's PHYS1080 - Stars, Galaxies, and the Cosmos, and is a good elective for physics students and anyone else who just likes physics, while also being a good subject for those planning to continue with astrophysics in 2nd and 3rd year. I did the course in first year, and really loved it!

So if you haven't finalised your semester 2 courses yet, or have a spare elective, take a look at this link and have a chat to your academic advisor about PHYS1080.

Or you can find a link to the flyer on the Links page.
