PHYS-435: Statistical physics IIIThis course introduces statistical field theory, and uses concepts related to phase transitions to discuss a variety of complex systems (random walks and polymers, disordered systems, combinatorial o
PHYS-436: Statistical physics IVNoise and fluctuations play a crucial role in science and technology. This course treats stochastic methods, applying them to both classical problems and quantum systems. It emphasizes the frameworks
ME-403: Applied mechanical designStudents will be exposed to hands-on design problems throughout the term. They will acquire methodologies to (1) address open ended engineering problems, (2) cultivate creativity, (3) support decision
EE-111: Circuits and systemsCe cours présente une introduction à la théorie et aux méthodes d'analyse et de résolution des circuits électriques.
ENV-471: Environmental economicsIntroduction to economic analysis applied to environmental issues: all the necessary basic concepts, including cost-benefit analysis, for environmental policy making and its instruments (examples: cli
ME-469: Nano-scale heat transferIn this course we study heat transfer (and energy conversion) from a microscopic perspective. First we focus on understanding why classical laws (i.e. Fourier Law) are what they are and what are their
