[CPEPnews] Online course - LIGO: Detecting Gravitational Waves

[Lynn Cominsky]

Hello Friends of Contemporary Physics Education Project (CPEP)!

The CPEP website http://cpepphysics.org/ now has a new content area in 
Gravitation and will soon have a new poster that features LIGO's direct
detection of the first gravitational waves from merging black holes.

In conjunction with this exciting discovery, we are pleased to offer our 
second course for physics instructors of lower-division engineering 
physics courses:

LIGO: Detecting Gravitational Waves

It is a four-week (Jun 27 - Jul 21) on-line course and registration is 
now available here:

Note: There are 2 different registration options - 2 academic credit 
units ($130) or 3 continuing education units ($85).
If you do not need units, we encourage you to enroll for the less
costly option, as auditors are not being accepted at this time.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
