Laboratory/Recitation course (PHYS 1611)

            The laboratory/recitation work is an integral part of the course. Satisfactory completion of lab/rec work is mandatory. Lab experiments are selected to parallel and complement the topics covered in the lectures. Recitation is to enhance students’ problem-solving skills and to help students for better understanding of the materials.
