DCR: Teaching

Description

I teach at all levels, from introductory non-majors courses to graduate courses, often with an emphasis on computation or planetary science. Listed at right are all the courses I have taught since joining the faculty in fall 2000. Courses with links have their own web pages.

NOTE: ASTR615 was formerly called ASTR688C and ASTR688N, Special Topics in Modern Astronomy: Numerical Methods in Astrophysics.

The current schedule of astronomy courses being taught at Maryland is here.

Redesigned lab materials for ASTR121 now available for interested instructors.
