COURSES TAUGHT AND TEACHING AT UDEC:
Every semester I teach at least one course of astronomy, typically
for students of our undergraduate program in astronomy or for
graduate students in physics or astronomy, at both master's or
doctoral levels. I also teach (although not always) elective
courses on a specific subject in astrophysics for advanced
undergraduate and graduate students. As a professor associated to
the Teacher in Natural Science Education (with a major in physics)
undergraduate program, I have been responsible for the second
astrophysics course in that program. Courses that I have taught at
the Universidad de Concepción since July 2009
include:
• Astrophysics II (511421)
• Frontiers in Astronomy (514122)
• General Astrophysics (514321)
• Galactic and Extragalactic Astrophysics
(514412/514420)
• Extragalactic Astrophysics (514312)
• Galaxy Formation and Evolution (514507)
• Advanced Spectroscopy
(514526/4102013)
• Advanced Astrobiology I (514341)
• Advanced Astrophysics (4312004)
• Large Scale Structures in the Universe (4312020)
• Astronomical Instrumentation and Observational
Techniques (514222/514408)
I have also been responsible for undergraduate research training
and thesis projects for physics and astronomy students, as well as
for science teacher students. Moreover, I am (have been)
supervisor of Ph.D. and master's thesis students in physics and
astronomy. In addition to this, I have been the creator and
responsible faculty of an astrophotography course for the general
public, as well as the co-creator and responsible scholar for UdeC
of an international, interdidisciplinary course with the
University of Cincinnati (USA) on geology, anthropology, and
astronomy: "The
Atacama: Connecting Earth and Sky Through a Human
Perspective". Last but not least, I have given invited
lectures for several junior courses in our astronomy program, as
well as, occasionally, for other programs.
