PHYS 342 Contemporary Experimental Physics and Lab 6 credits
This course develops laboratory skills and provides a deeper understanding of instrumentation, experimental methods, and data analysis in contemporary experimental physics. Emphasis is placed on the iterative process of building measurement systems, troubleshooting, and quantifying uncertainty. A central component is a self-directed project, which requires students to collaboratively manage the full lifecycle of an experiment, from initial conceptualization and apparatus construction to the analysis and presentation of results. One laboratory per week.
During registration, students will register for both the lecture and a corresponding lab section, which will appear on the student's academic transcript in a single entry.
