Engineering Physics is concerned with the application of fundamental physical science to research and development in Engineering and Physics. Physics Engineers will be well versed in the fundamental science and technology of semiconductor devices, optical systems and devices, telecommunications and related computer technologies. A broad base in applied physics and electronics makes them well suited to work in a large number of high technology industries, including integrated circuit fabrication, electronic devices, microwave and optical systems and sensor technology. With appropriate choice of optional courses, students in this program could also pursue graduate studies in either engineering or pure and applied physics.
Engineering Physics is a progressive co-op only program; exceptions can only be made by the Engineering Physics Steering Committee. It is a highly competitive program with restricted enrolment. Those not fulfilling the continuation requirements may be eligible to transfer to other programs in engineering or science. The first year provides a basic background in mathematics, basic science, problem solving and also a specialized team design course. In the second and third years fundamental concepts in electronics and applied physics are introduced and expanded on. The fourth year allows the student sufficient flexibility to specialize in topics such as semiconductor devices and fabrication or applied optics. The program is a collaboration between the Department of Electronics and the Physics Department.
