On Research
1 credit
Students will be introduced to experimental techniques, tools, resources, and lab safety. Students will conduct the full lifecycle of an experimental project and learn how to properly disseminate their results.
Learning Goals
Students will develop the tools that they need to be successful in laboratory and research environments. Specifically:Students will demonstrate the ability to perform physics experiments safely Students demonstrate correct use of basic laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, function generators, DACs, etc. Students demonstrate the ability to program computers to access and manipulate external data. Students will complete the entire lifecycle of a simple project, including how to propose an idea, find references and use the library, write clear and concise reports, how to generate useful figures, and other graphics.
