About
Hello hello! I am Jack Beda. I currently study MPhys Mathematical Physics (5 years) at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland in my 4th year. I grew up in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. Primarily, this website is a side project to help me learn HTML and Javascript when I have little better to do, but you may find some useful information here regardless.
Outdooring
I have a keen interest in hiking/canoing/mountaineering/biking/skiing/running/climbing and all sorts of things outside. In Canada I primarily enjoy admiring the lovely trees and lakes of Algonquin and the Kawartha Highlands. In the UK, where fewer trees, lakes, and canoes are to be found, I enjoy climbing all of the various grassy, rocky, and snowy lumps around whenever I can.
Academics
Below is a list of all of the courses I have taken so far (or are currently taking) at the university of Edinburgh. Each course links to the relevant DPT (degree program table) at the university. Some of the DPT pages will gradually go out of date.
