Acoustics

The Acoustics Laboratory equipment includes a large anechoic chamber, a small reverberation chamber and a multiple-unit acoustics laboratory for student experimentation in acoustics in air. Sonar equipment, test and wave tanks and instrumentation for investigation in underwater sound comprise the Underwater Acoustics Laboratory.

Basic Physics

The Basic Physics Laboratory has simple and computer controlled experiments to help demonstrate Newton’s laws of motion, rotational kinematics, gravitation, Gauss’ Law, electrical potential, Ac and DC circuits.

Modern Physics

Modern Physics Laboratory has simple and computer controlled experiments to help demonstrate special relativity, the wave-particle duality, the Schrödinger equation, and atoms and molecules.

Robotics

The Robotics Laboratory is the capstone Applied Physics class where students design and build autonomous robots.

Optics

The Optics Laboratory experiments demonstrate Geometrical optics, Physical optics, multiple-beam interference, Fraunhofer and Fresnel diffraction, and polarization.

Simulations

The Simulations Laboratory provides a variety of computer platforms used to simulate physical systems.

Electro Optics

The Electro Optics Laboratory experiments provide hands-on familiarity with television, CCD, CID, remote sensors, lasers, and scanning imagers.

Precision fabrication facility

The Precision Fabrication Facility provides proto-type machining support for all teaching and research laboratories.

Electronics R&D facility

The Electronics R&D Facility provides proto-type electronics support for all teaching and research laboratories.
