Theory of General Relativity

Gravity reinterpreted as the geometry of curved spacetime, built up from the mathematical machinery — manifolds, tensors, the equivalence principle — needed to write Einstein's field equations and actually solve them. Expect heavy problem sets working through Schwarzschild black holes, FRW cosmology, and linearized gravitational waves, alongside the classical experimental tests that turned GR from speculation into the standard description of gravity. It sits downstream of special relativity and electrodynamics and feeds directly into anything serious in cosmology, astrophysics, or high-energy theory, so it's where the geometric language those fields all assume finally gets made precise.
