<p>Physics and.....philosophy. Nice combination! Kind of like Yale's "Mathematics and Philosophy" major.</p>

3

<p>Princeton has this course called Learning and Epistemology that is listed as both a philosophy (PHI 218) and electrical engineering (ELE 218) course.</p>

<p>Yay for strange combinations!</p>

<p>The award structure of the competition isn't much incentive, given that being number 1 rather than 2 or 5 is probably a crapshoot. </p>

<p>40000 dollars, first place
2500 dollars, second place
500 dollars, third place
(nothing) places 4 to 50.</p>

<p>Wow. I'm not a fan of the structure either. >_></p>
