Capstone course required of all graduate students in the interdisciplinary graduate biotechnology certificate program. Reviews molecular genetics, product synthesis and purification, economics, intellectual property, and business planning. Working in teams, students present a biotechnology product plan. Requisites: Requires prerequisite course of CHEN 5830 (minimum grade D-).
Same as ECEN 4831, and ASEN 4436/5436. Requisites: Restricted to any graduate students or Electrical/Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering Concurrent Degree majors only.
Explores the field of natural language processing as it is concerned with the theoretical and practical issues that arise in getting computers to perform useful and interesting tasks with natural language. Covers the problems of understanding complex language phenomena and building practical programs. Same as LING 5832. Requisites: Restricted to Computer Science (CSEN) graduate students or Computer Science Concurrent Degree majors only.
Provides a deep exploration of the fundamental principles of colloid and interface science and of related applications. Core topics include fundamental equations of interfacial science, capillary phenomena, interfacial thermodynamics interfaces, molecular monolayers, electrical surface properties, and interfacial a forces. Advanced topics include wetting phenomena, adsorption isotherms, dynamic interfacial behavior, surface modification, tribiology, surfactant self-assembly, and foams/emulsions among others. Requisites: Requires prerequisite course of CHEN 3320 (minimum grade C-).
Supervised study of special topics of interest to students under instructor guidance. Department consent required. Requisites: Restricted to graduate students only.
Presents fundamental chemical and physical concepts that give rise to the unique optical, electronic and magnetic properties of nanoscale materials. Introduces important synthetic routes for producing nanomaterials, and interparticle forces governing colloidal behavior and self-assembly. Discusses current and potential applications in catalysis, biomedicine, renewable energy, and other fields. CHEN 4836 and 5836 are the same course. Requisites: Restricted to graduate students only.
Supervised study of special topics of interest to students under instructor guidance. May be repeated up to 6 total credit hours. Department consent required. Requisites: Restricted to graduate students only.
Software laboratory course extends the concepts developed in ECEN 4827 to full design and layout of mixed analog and digital custom integrated circuits. Assignments explore implementation of analog to digital and digital to analog converters, and final project developes a full custom IC for a target application. Requisites: Requires prerequisite course of ECEN 5827 (minimum grade C-).
Develops the skills and practices necessary to apply user-centered approaches to software requirements analysis, and the design and evaluation of computer applications. Requisites: Restricted to Computer Science (CSEN) graduate students or Computer Science Concurrent Degree majors only.
Available only through approval of graduate advisor. Subjects arranged to fit the needs of the particular student. Non-EMP students require instructor permission. Requisites: Restricted to graduate students in Engineering Management Program (EMEN) only.
