Utkarsh Bajaj
Bio
Utkarsh Bajaj is a physics and mathematics enthusiast. He is interested in exploring the connection between Einstein's theory of general relativity and quantum physics to arrive at a theory of everything. To ignite his passion for teaching and science communication, Utkarsh has written a book on the mathematics underlying general relativity. To fuel his interests further, Utkarsh has devised a physics and mathematics curriculum that fosters "thinking" rather than "learning," and he believes in using the Socratic method of teaching to encourage a unique perspective. Apart from his academic pursuits, Utkarsh is heavily invested in playing golf, basketball, cricket and table tennis. He also codes for fun. To invoke his spiritual side, Utkarsh often contemplates Lord Krishna's sayings in the Mahabharata, analyzing the Bhagavad Gita from time to time. He is a stern believer in Karma Yoga, which, according to him, is the most beautiful thought in the entire universe.
