Review of electromagnetism; geometrical optics, analysis of optical systems; wave properties of light, Gaussian beams, beam optics; interaction of light with matter, spontaneous and stimulated emission, optical amplification, theory and applications of lasers, optical interactions in semiconductors, light emitting diodes and diode lasers; detectors, noise in detection systems; light propagation in anisotropic crystals, Pockels and Kerr effect, light modulators; nonlinear optics, second harmonic generation, phase matching, nonlinear optical materials.
Fundamentals of optics and applications are discussed. Topics covered are photon and wave nature of light; reflection and refraction laws and geometrical optics; optical instruments (camera, eye, telescope, microscope); waves; interference and interferometers; fiber optics; diffraction and Fourier optics, gratings and micro-optical elements; polarization and applications, display technologies. The course is supplemented with in-class demonstrations and examples from everyday optics phenomena such as color of the sky and rainbows. A course in electromagnetic theory, such as ELEC 206, is helpful but not required.
Psychopathology and therapeutics as applied to current practice. An historical perspective with the major psychiatric diagnoses defined along with the therapies.
Foundations of psychology; perception; learning; motivation; intelligence; personality and social relations.
The individual as a member of social groups and social psychological perspectives on issues such as aggression and violence, bystander intervention, obedience, conformity, attitudes, prejudice, and attribution.
Theories and research, including behavioral and cognitive perspectives, and such topics as classical conditioning, operant conditioning, social learning, insight learning, and information processing.
Human development from birth to old age. Different spheres of development are studied, such as cognitive, socio-emotional and moral, both from an individual and interactional perspective.
Brain processes involved in perception, motivation, aggression, emotions, attention, psychopathology and learning.
Data collection techniques, data analysis, and interpretation; making inferences from data using statistical tools such as t-test, ANOVA, ANCOVA, and MANOVA and individual or group research projects with an emphasis on experimental methodology.
Etiology and symptoms of psychopathological behavior from different theoretical perspectives including psychodynamic, physiological, behaviorist, cognitive, and humanistic.
Major personality theories, including psychodynamic, social learning, cognitive, and trait-theory approaches.
Psychology in the workplace includes issues related to psychological testing and measurement in the following processes: employee selection and placement, talent management, performance management, program evaluation in organizational interventions, return on investment in training and development activities; psychological processes in employee health and well-being (stress, burnout, work-family conflict); employee attitudes, including job satisfaction, commitment, organizational citizenship behavior; and psychological processes in interpersonal phenomena including leadership, motivation, teamwork, and communication.
