Subject offerings of new and developing areas of knowledge in electrical and computer engineering intended to augment the existing curriculum. See Class Schedule or departmental course information for topics and prerequisites. Course Information: May be repeated in the same or separate terms if topics vary.

This course will not focus on the transmission of signals, as in telecommunications systems, but rather on harnessing the light-matter interactions that enable the generation, manipulation, and control of light with fiber. Topics range from mode theory, propagation, and fiber design, to fiber-based sensors and high power fiber laser systems. Prerequisites: Credit or concurrent enrollment in ECE 520, plus one of ECE 455 or 495 or ECE 572 or equivalent.
