Abstract
Geometric algebra has emerged as the preferred mathematical framework for physics
because it provides compact and intuitive descriptions in many areas including classical
and quantum mechanics, electromagnetic theory and relativity. Geometric algebra has
also found prolific applications as a computational tool in computer graphics and robotics.
Leading exponents of this extensive mathematical apparatus are fervently insisting its
inclusion in the undergraduate physics curriculum.
