General Physics I (Calculus-based: PHYS 101/1302) includes the theory of light, the photoelectric and Compton effects; atomic models; electromagnetic waves; the ray model; Snell’s law; Ampere’s law; EMF; and Ohm’s law.
General Physics II (Algebra-based: PHYS 102/1403): Topics include wave motion and sound; temperature; the first and second laws of thermodynamics; the kinetic theory of gases; Coulomb’s law; the electric field; Gauss’s law; electric potential; capacitors and dielectrics; D.C. circuits; the magnetic field; Ampere’s and Faraday’s laws.
General Chemistry I (CHEM 101/1401): Topics involve the study of matter, states of matter (gases, liquids, and solids), atomic structure, the periodic table, chemical bonding, stoichiometry of pure substances, reactions in aqueous solutions, and thermochemistry.
Electromagnetics (EE 340/ELEN 3409) for Electrical Engineering students includes Coulomb's law, Gauss's law, electric potential, electric dipoles, resistance, and capacitance. Magnetostatics: Biot-Savart law, Ampere's law, magnetic forces, magnetic boundary conditions, and inductance. Time-varying fields: Faraday’s law, Maxwell's equations, and plane wave propagation. Reflection and refraction. Introduction to transmission line theory. Waveguides and antennas.
Electronics I (ELEN 3407) for Electrical Engineering students includes op-amp linear applications. PN junction and Zener diode. Diode basic circuit analysis and diode applications (rectifiers and limiters). MOSFET and BJT (DC and small-signal analysis). Amplifier configurations and characteristics. CMOS digital circuits.
Electronics II (ELEN 3410) for Electrical Engineering students includes differential amplifiers, multistage amplifiers, amplifier frequency response (for single-stage, multistage, and op-amp), passive and active filters, feedback: circuit topologies and analysis, oscillators, and an introduction to A/D and D/A.
Senior research project (PHYS 489): Each student is introduced to research through a specific research project under the guidance of a faculty member. Students will be exposed to the fundamentals of research and will conduct a literature review. They gain experience in experimental techniques, data analysis, and interpretation of results, with a focus on the process of scientific discovery. Presentation and submission of a final report are required at the end of this course.
Physics for Engineering (PHYS 151) includes mechanics, work and energy, fluid and wave motion, heat and thermodynamics, electricity and magnetism, and optics.
Medical Physics (PHYS 001) for Preparatory Year Health Science includes medical imaging and radiation therapy, physical metrics and radiation, its safety and radioactivity, computed tomography, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging.
