The Julian Schwinger Lectureship brings thought leaders in physics to Columbia present broad views of the most exciting developments in modern physics.
The lectureship commemorates the scientific legacy of Columbia Alumnus Julian Schwinger (BA 1936, PhD 1939), whose scientific work fundamentally advanced theoretical physics and and its applications to fields ranging from high energy particle physics to condensed matter physics and electrical engineering and whose ideas profoundly influence physics as it is practiced today, and was instituted in honor of a generous gift from the Julian Schwinger Foundation.
