Optics offerings at Physics
2nd year Optics for non-physics students
2003
2nd year Optics for physics students
One 2nd year Waves and Optics class
2nd year Optics for EP students
The amalgamation was needed to optimize
resources The old EP_225 class (run by A. Hirose)
was altered to have more engineering science

Home assignments Will be given every Wednesday,
you would have to submit your work next week
Wednesday to me, preferably before/right after
the lecture, but I will accept the papers by the
Sunset in my office, Room 258, second floor. I
will distribute the marked assignments one week
later prior to every Wednesday lecture. Every day
delay in assignment submission (unless a
legitimate reason) would mean 10 reduction of
the mark.
8
There will be 10 assignments Marking Scheme For
every problem you will be given 5 points Mark
5 - everything is OK Mark 4 - there are minor
errors Mark 3 - major errors or wrong
solution 0.5 Mark - one of the questions (such
as (a), (b), etc.) was forgotten to answer Mark 0
- not enough efforts
9
Student current standing will be updated once a
week Please watch your marks. In a case of
technical error, or a wrong mark given, I will be
happy to correct it. The corrections will be
posted one week later.
