1- Microfluidics, Graduate Course, Spring terms:
In this course, the students will be given an introduction to the field of micro- and nanotechnological systems. The students will learn why minute volumes of solutions confined in micro- and nanochannels can interact much more rapidly/efficiently than macrosystems. At the micro- and nanoscale, phenomenon, such as surface tension, electrokinetic effects, and molecular diffusion, have a tremendous impact that open novel opportunities for basic research as well as for commercial applications. Microfluidic systems have dimensions that are very similar to cell and bio-molecules and thus are ideal to investigate biological effects.

2- Fields, Forces and Flows in Biological Systems (Introduction to Bio-Microfluidics), Undergraduate course, Spring terms:
This course introduces the basic of bio-Microfluidics which are the driving forces for electric current, fluid flow, and mass transport, plus their application to a variety of biological systems. Basic mathematical and engineering tools will be introduced, in the context of biology. Electrokinetic phenomena are also introduced, which is an example of coupled nature of chemical-electro-mechanical driving forces in real bio-chemical environments and live-cells. Applications include transport in biological tissues and across membranes, manipulation of cells and biomolecules, and microfluidics.

3- Machine Dynamics, Undergraduate Course, Fall terms:
In this course students learn how to apply the techniques of dynamics to analyze both the motion and forces associated with planar mechanisms. Students learn how to model and solve for the position, velocity, acceleration and forces on linkages using vectors. They also study the kinematics of gears, flywheels and cams. Machine vibrations is introduced as an integral part of Machine Dynamics. Students learn how to model simple mechanical systems as vibrating systems and then analyze the vibratory response of these systems. Once these analytical skills have been developed, the students can apply these skills to the design of linkages, internal combustion engines, gears, shafts and cams. Several in-class exams are used to evaluate students' performance. Computer problems are assigned so students can experience the solution methods to some of the more complex problems. This required course integrates material from calculus and dynamics to provide the student with tools that can be used to analyze the motion of machinery and can be used in the design of machinery and machine components. It is offered annually in the Fall semester and occasionally in the Spring semester.

4- Probability & Statistics, Graduate Course, Fall terms:
This course introduces the main concepts of probability and statistics with applications. Topics include: probability; mathematical expectation; random variables; discrete and continuous probability distributions; sampling distributions and data description, statistical estimation and testing; confidence intervals; and an introduction to linear regression and correlation.
