CIVIL-308: Rock mechanicsLes étudiants comprennent le comportement mécanique de la roche intacte, des joints et des massifs rocheux et savent déterminer les facteurs influençant un projet. Ils savent utiliser les méthodes appropriées pour analyser et dimensionner l'excavation et le soutènement des ouvrages souterrains.
CH-314: Structural analysisThe aim of this course is to treat three of the major techniques for structural characterization of molecules: mass spectrometry, NMR, and X-ray techniques.
PHYS-470: Nonlinear optics for quantum technologiesThis course provides the fundamental knowledge and theoretical tools needed to treat nonlinear optical interactions, covering both classical and quantum theory of nonlinear optics. It presents applications such as nonclassical state generation and coherent frequency conversion.
CH-401: Advanced nuclear magnetic resonancePrinciples of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and applications to medical imaging. Principles of modern multi-dimensional NMR in liquids and solids. Structure determination of proteins & materials. Measurement of molecular dynamics. Principles of Hyperpolarization.
MSE-422: Advanced metallurgyThis course covers the metallurgy, processing and properties of modern high-performance metals and alloys (e.g. advanced steels, Ni-base, Ti-base, High Entropy Alloys etc.). In addition, the principles of computational alloy design as well as approaches for a sustainable metallurgy will be addressed
PHYS-640: Neutron and X-ray Scattering of Quantum MaterialsNNeutron and X-ray scattering are some of the most powerful and versatile experimental methods to study the structure and dynamics of materials on the atomic scale. This course covers basic theory, instrumentation and scientific applications of these experimental methods.
PHYS-745: Spin DynamicsThe course is conceived in the perspective of understanding the fundamentals of spintronics. This implies learning about magnetism at the quantum mechanical level, mechanisms for spin relaxation and spin transport, including Berry phase. Various forms of magnetic resonance are presented.
