3.00 Credits
A case-study approach introducing the systems method to analyze large-scale systems. Qualitative and quantitative study of the problems, from problem examination, to problem definition, to problem solution, and to implementation. Case studies in manufacturing, transportation, community development, water resources, and criminal justice. Emphasis is on analysis of real-world problems, using techniques of systems engineering and operations research, and considering diverse factors such as economic, technical, sociological, and environmental issues. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: ECSE 4500. Corequisite: MATP 4700 or DSES 4770 or equivalent, or permission of instructor. When Offered: Fall term odd-numbered years. Cross Listed: Cross-listed as DSES 6830. Students cannot receive credit for both this course and DSES 6830. Credit Hours: 3

3.00 Credits
Applications of operations research and systems analysis techniques to mathematical modeling of complex systems, especially large-scale public systems. Discussion of model-building approaches, emphasizing the role of creativity, rationality, and mathematics. Introduction of important quantitative techniques (e.g., geometrical probability, optimization theory, and stochastic processes) and their application to modeling emergency service systems, spatial distribution of public service facilities, congestion, land-use patterns, transportation systems, demographics, and energy. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: MATP 4700 and ECSE 4500 (or equivalent); ECSE 6830 desirable. When Offered: Fall term annually. Cross Listed: Cross-listed as DSES 6840. Students cannot receive credit for both this course and DSES 6840) Credit Hours: 3

3.00 Credits
Active participation in a semester-long project, under the supervision of a faculty adviser. A Professional Project often serves as a culminating experience for a Professional Master's program but, with departmental or school approval, can be used to fulfill other program requirements. With approval, students may register for more than one Professional Project. Professional Projects must result in documentation established by each department or school, but are not submitted to the Graduate School and are not archived in the library. Grades of A, B, C, or F are assigned by the faculty adviser at the end of the semester. If not completed on time, a formal Incomplete grade may be assigned by the faculty adviser, listing the work remaining to be completed and the time limit for completing this work.

3.00 - 9.00 Credits
Active participation in a master's-level project under the supervision of a faculty adviser, leading to a master's project report. Grades of IP are assigned until the master's project has been approved by the faculty adviser. If recommended by the adviser, the master's project may be accepted by the Office of Graduate Education to be archived in the Library. Grades will then be listed as Credit Hours: 3 to 9
-
6.00 - 9.00 Credits
Active participation in research, under the supervision of a faculty adviser, leading to a master's thesis. Grades of IP are assigned until the thesis has been approved by the faculty adviser and accepted by the Office of Graduate Education to be archived in a standard format in the library. Grades will then be listed as S. Credit Hours: 6 to 9
-
3.00 Credits
Review of the state of the art in optical fibers, light sources, and photodetectors. Topics include: propagation, coupling, dispersion, loss and cut-off characteristics of guided wave models in optical fibers, structural and operating parameters of various types of hetrostructure lasers and light-emitting diodes and quantum efficiency, response time and noise characteristics of silicon PAD and PIN diodes. Also includes applications of optical fibers in optical communications, in data processing, and in control systems. When Offered: Offered biannually. Credit Hours: 3
