Wheaton Science Symposia

2008 Symposium 2003 Symposium

The Wheaton College Science Symposium is an annual event that sponsored, on a rotating basis, by departments within the Division of Natural and Social Sciences. This well-established event for the Science Division has given exposure of the sciences at Wheaton College to students and guests by bringing in experts who discuss pertinent issues and topics.

Science Symposium 2008:
"String Theory and the Multiverse: Philosophical and Theological Implications"

March 26-27, 2008

String theory has been proposed as a means of unifying all fundamental forces in the universe. This theory of everything implies that physical reality is far vaster and possesses greater grandeur than ever imagined, possibly including extra, hidden dimensions. Similarly, the possibility of the multiverse, or collection of universes, has profound implications for philosophy and theology. Specialists in physics and philosophy will address these issues for a general audience at the 2008 Wheaton Science Symposium.
