Please make sure that you have access to Ransom Hall room ~ 317 and you can use any version of Mathematica program. Several lectures concepts will be illustrated with the templates in Mathematica software.  Correspondent homework  may  contain assignments to rework with Mathematica. If you are more familiar with MathLab you can do work and submit assigned problem solutions in Mathlab environment

I will do some experiments on Fresnel formula with metals and dielectrics and EM radiation polarization in 255NH or directly in 108NH. After the Spring break a demo with standing wave compensation.

Notes:

1.       This syllabus may be changed by the instructor as needed for good academic practice.

4.       Americans with Disabilities Act: The University of Texas at Arlington is on record as being committed to both the spirit and letter of federal equal opportunity legislation; reference Public Law 93112—The Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as amended.  With the passage of new federal legislation entitled Americans with Disabilities Act – (ADA), pursuant to section 504 of The Rehabilitation Act, there is renewed focus on providing this population with the same opportunities enjoyed by all citizens. As a faculty member, I am required by law to provide “reasonable accommodation” to students with disabilities, so as not to discriminate on the basis of that disability.  Student responsibility primarily rests with informing faculty at the beginning of the semester and in providing authorized documentation through designated administrative channels. In conformance with the Americans with disabilities Act, I state that, "If you require an accommodation based on disability, I would like to meet with you in the privacy of my office during the first week of the semester to make sure you are properly accommodated. 

5.       It is the philosophy of The University of Texas at Arlington that academic dishonesty is a completely unacceptable mode of conduct and will not be tolerated in any form.  All persons involved in academic dishonesty will be disciplined in accordance with University regulations and procedures.  Discipline may include suspension or expulsion from the University. “Scholastic dishonesty includes but is not limited to cheating, plagiarism, collusion, the submission for credit of any work or materials that are attributable in whole or in part to another person, taking an examination for another person, any act designed to give unfair advantage to a student or the attempt to commit such acts.”  (Regents’ Rules and Regulations, Part One, Chapter VI, Section 3, Subsection 3.2, Subdivision 3.22). ANY CHEATING WILL RESULT IN SEVERE PENALTIES. All work submitted must be original.  If derived from another source, a full bibliographical citation must be given.

6.       If identical papers are submitted by different students, the grade earned will be divided among all identical papers.

7.       A paper submitted for regrading will be compared to a copy of the original paper.  If changed, points will be deducted.
