The Engineering Physics Curriculum is designed for students pursuing careers in research or development in advanced technology and engineering. The students engaged in this program develop excellent problem solving skills through the study of the fundamentals of physics and mathematics. Thus they will be ready for a variety of careers requiring innovative ideas and they will be up to face the ever-changing challenges of a rapidly evolving technological world. The completion of this program requires the choice of an appropriate concentration that will provide the student with a good background in a conventional area of engineering or applied physics. Examples of the most popular concentrations offered are Electrical Engineering, Material Science and Applied Physics, including for example modern optics (lasers, non-linear optics etc.) or modern instrumentation, measurement standards etc. Research activities are an essential part of the curriculum and they include the course ENP498, where the student engages on a senior design project in her/his area of concentration. Several other elective courses feature research opportunities. This program has two educational objectives a core that defines the basic knowledge in science and engineering that the students need to develop and an area of concentration.

Example areas of concentration are:

  • Material Science
  • Analog Microelectronics
  • Modern Instrumentation
  • Solid Mechanics
  • Fluid Mechanics
  • Energy Systems
