PHY 335: Introduction to Modern Optics
4.00 Credits
Oglethorpe University
A standard intermediate-level optics course which will treat the basics of wave theory and the electromagnetic origin of optical phenomena, geometrical optics, physical optics including Fourier optics, Fraunhofer and Fresnel diffraction and dispersion. The course will conclude with some consideration of current topics such as holography, quantum optics and non-linear optics. Text will be on the level of Jenkins and White or Hecht. Prerequisites: MAT 241 and PHY 202 with a grade of "C-" or higher in each course.

PHY 421: Introduction to Modern Physics I, II. 4 plus
4.00 Credits
Oglethorpe University
For physics, engineering and chemistry majors, this is a one-year sequence that discusses the most important developments in 20th century physics. The first semester will review special relativity and treat the foundations of quantum physics from a historical perspective; the quantum theory of one-electron atoms will be developed. In the second semester, there will be a treatment of many-electron atoms, molecules and solids, with an introduction to nuclear and elementary particle physics. The text will be on the level of Eisberg and Resnick, Quantum Physics. Prerequisites: PHY 202 and PHY 332; PHY 421 must precede PHY 422.

PHY 495: Internship in Physics
1.00 - 4.00 Credits
Oglethorpe University
An internship is designed to provide a formalized experiential learning opportunity to qualified students. The internship generally requires the student to obtain a faculty supervisor in the relevant field of study, submit a learning agreement, work 30 hours for every hour of academic credit, keep a written journal of the work experience, have regularly scheduled meetings with the faculty supervisor and write a research paper dealing with some aspect of the internship. Written work should total five pages of academic writing for every hour of credit. An extensive list of internships is maintained by career services, including opportunities at a number of local engineering firms and technically-based corporations and labs. Prerequisites: Permission of the faculty supervisor, qualification for the internship program, permission of an internship site supervisor and acceptance of learning agreement proposal by the Experiential Education Committee.
