- Prerequisite
- CHEM 1200 , PHYS 2320 , or permission of instructor. This course introduces students to the structure of semiconductors, metals, ceramic, polymers and composite materials, and the physical principles underlying the relationship of a material’s structure to its optical, thermal, electrical and mechanical properties. The course is designed to provide a scientific foundation that can be to understand material properties and optimize material properties through rational design. (Three

Prerequisites: Permission of instructor. This course will introduce students to elements of solid state physics. The course is intended to create the background required to understand the physics of solid state device operations. The course will prepare students for advanced courses in solid state quantum electronics. We will develop the fundamental concepts of the band structure of crystalline materials required for understanding of many-particle phenomena such as electronic transport, optical conductivity, and thermal properties of materials. Specific topics will include properties of advanced low-dimensional materials (surfaces and interfaces, quantum wires, quantum dots, organic semiconductors). The course is designed to provide the opportunity for students from different backgrounds to undertake a study and research in solid state electronic materials engineering.

- Prerequisite
- EPHY 3200 Material Science or Permission of Instructor. This course is designed to provide the students with the theoretical background and hands-on experience with instrumentation required to characterize the morphology, structure and properties of materials. The lecture component of this course will focus on the physical principles underlying the measurement techniques and analysis of collected data. The laboratory component will focus on safe and effective operation of advanced instrumentation. (One lecture and three laboratory hours per week). Click here for the Fall 2026 Class Schedule
The goal of this course is to give students a general understanding of what contemporary physics and engineering research and development (R&D) is about, how it is structured and organized, why we need to do R&D, and how R&D allows us to advance our knowledge and get practical benefits for real life. The course consists of three major components. They are introductory lectures on contemporary topics given by the instructor, student discussion panels, and student seminar presentations.

Prerequisites: Senior Status; Permission of Instructor. This is part 1 of two-part design course for the undergraduate engineering physics program. This course provides an operational experience in the development of innovative and realistic engineered products. Student groups design, build, and test a product that solves an open-ended design problem or consumer need. Each group may be assigned a design project selected from topics suggested by faculty or choose their own design project pending instructor approval. They are responsible for (i) designing and developing specifications, (ii) planning a budget, and (iii) biweekly progress reports. Teamwork, communication, and project management are stressed throughout the semester. Click here for the Fall 2026 Class Schedule
