Advanced Quantum Mechanics: Experimental Physics

The way that quantum mechanics is actually used in research is, generally speaking, a far cry from the courses currently offered. For example, ‘second quantization’ is not covered in the current courses on quantum mechanics (such as PHY 212 and PHY 312)

Experimental Physics

The following are the goals of the SSE Physics Lab:

1. Preparing an institutional and national platform for student-driven experimental research in physics. 
2. Indigenous development of experiments for the laboratory and demonstrations for the classroom environment. 
3. Training SSE students in world-class experimental physics through required and optional lab courses. 
4. Sharing expertise, resources, and training in physics education with sister institutions and organizations in the country and the region.
