This advanced learning path equips undergraduate and graduate students with the skills to analyze planetary remote sensing data. It covers foundational planetary science, remote sensing principles, data processing techniques, and advanced analysis methods, culminating in practical applications for studying planetary surfaces and atmospheres.
A graduate-level learning path exploring the physical, chemical, and evolutionary conditions that determine whether a planet can host life. It covers stellar and orbital constraints, atmospheric and climate processes, surface and subsurface environments, and the interpretation of biosignatures, integrating astrobiology and planetary science.
This advanced graduate-level path systematically covers the physical processes governing exoplanet formation and evolution, from protoplanetary disk physics to core accretion, disk migration, and dynamical interactions. It integrates planet formation theory with fluid dynamics and numerical simulation methods to explain observed exoplanet populations such as hot Jupiters and super-Earths.
This advanced graduate-level path systematically covers the physical principles of radiation environments in planetary science, from solar and cosmic sources to magnetospheric trapping, radiation interactions with matter, and practical effects on spacecraft and planetary surfaces. It integrates foundational physics (electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, nuclear physics) with applied topics such as radiolysis and spacecraft charging.
A comprehensive graduate-level path covering the physics of radiation environments (solar, cosmic, magnetospheric) and their interactions with planetary surfaces and spacecraft. It builds from foundational physics through environmental characterization to applied effects such as radiolysis and spacecraft charging.
This advanced undergraduate path explores the diversity and unity of planetary bodies by comparing their interiors, atmospheres, surfaces, and dynamical behaviors. Learners will develop a systematic framework for understanding how physical processes shape planets, moons, and dwarf planets, and how universal principles explain both commonalities and differences.
A comprehensive graduate-level path covering the physical processes that build planets from dust to gas giants, including coagulation, pebble accretion, oligarchic growth, migration, and giant planet formation, with essential foundations in fluid dynamics and statistical physics.
A comprehensive learning path for advanced undergraduates to understand and model atmospheric circulation and dynamics on planetary scales. Covers fundamental fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, wave dynamics, general circulation, and numerical modeling techniques, with applications to Earth and other planets.
This advanced undergraduate path equips learners to apply gravity, magnetic, heat flow, seismic, and tidal methods to infer the internal structure and dynamics of planetary bodies. It builds from foundational physics and inverse theory through each geophysical technique to integration and case studies.
A comprehensive learning path for advanced undergraduates to conduct geological analysis of planetary surfaces, covering planetary chronology, structural geology, stratigraphy, GIS mapping, tectonic modeling, volcanic and fluvial/glacial landforms, and analog sites. The path builds from foundational planetary science and remote sensing through analytical techniques to synthesis and interpretation.
