I can smell my ORD coming, yesh! Of cos the usual tradition of posting the modules that i’m taking here.. EC3333 FINANCIAL ECONOMICS I This course is designed to introduce students to certain areas of financial economics. It attempts to develop a theoretical foundation for choice under uncertainty, portfolio analysis and equilibrium asset pricing models. A considerable portion of the course will also be devoted to the fixed-income securities and derivative securities. Since this is an economics course in a liberal arts and sciences setting, we will emphasize economic concepts whenever possible, and spend time on the intellectual and economic development of investment analysis. PC3130 QUANTUM MECHANICS II This module continues from PC2130 and prepares the student for PC4130. It is targeted at physics majors, as well as science and engineering students who wish to acquire a rigorous foundation in quantum theory. While reviewing briefly the material of PC2130, the general algebraic formalism of quantum mechanics is presented (Dirac’s bra-ket notation). Then the ladder-operator treatment of harmonic oscillators is developed, with some emphasis on the properties of coherent states. After discussing the algebra of orbital angular momentum and the properties of spherical harmonics, the bound states of the hydrogen atom are studied. The Stark effect and the Zeeman effect illustrate the methods of time-independent perturbation theory. The course closes with an introduction to the WKB approximation method. PC3232 NUCLEAR & PARTICLE PHYSICS This is an intermediate course in nuclear physics, with an introduction to particle physics. Properties of nuclei, e.g., masses, spins, and moments, are introduced and an introductory discussion of nuclear models is presented, the semi-empirical mass formula, the Fermi gas model, the shell model and some aspects of the collective model are discussed. The energy balances and spin/parity selection rules of alpha, beta and gamma decay processes are discussed in considerable detail. The various types of interaction between radiation and matter are discussed, and an introduction to radiation detectors is given. A discussion of the operational principles and technological aspects of accelerators and an introductory survey of particle physics completes the material covered. PC3241 SOLID STATE DEVICES This module aims to introduce students to solid state devices. The topics covered include: introduction to semiconductors, charge carrier concentrations, drift of carriers in electric and magnetic fields, diffusion and recombination of excess carriers, p-n junction physics, junction diodes, tunnel diodes, photodiodes, light emitting diodes, bipolar junction transistors, junction field effect transistors (JFET), metal-semiconductor contacts metal-insulator-semiconductor interfaces, basic MOSFET. PR2202 COSMETICS & PERFUMES Learning objectives: To understand the development, usefulness, classification, composition and application of cosmetics and perfumes. To gain pertinent information for the selection and evaluation of these items. To acquire an overview of the marketing and regulatory aspects of the global industry for these products. Major topics: History of cosmetics and perfumes. Formulation, manufacture and use of perfumes. Biology of the skin, cosmetic preparations, consumer information and precautions. Regulatory and industrial aspects of these products. Target students: All students outside the Faculty of Science. Science and Pharmacy students may read it as an elective
