Adventures in Physics

Adventures in Physics

Adventures in Physics is an annual public event that promotes physics for all ages. The event includes a series of lessons depicting concepts of physics through live experiments and demonstrations. After the demonstrations, a UCI physicist will give a lecture on their work. A Q&A for high school students about life in college will conclude the event.

This event honors the legacy of John Rosendahl, Instructional Programs Director in the UCI Department of Physics & Astronomy from 1987-2012. He created memorable lecture demonstrations that were seen by more than 50,000 students, and conducted physics assemblies for K-12 schools.
