I am pursuing my Bsc in Physics.
I am still in sophomore year.
This semester and next year I am intending to take some applied physics courses as electives.
I got choices for Junior level electives, which are:
-Optics: covers geometrical optics, interference, diffraction etc.
-Fiber Optics: covers waveguides, fiber fabrication, optical sources/detectors etc.
-Intro to Material Science: covers crystal structures, microstructures and microscopy, defects, phases etc.
-Intro to Material Processing: covers thin film preparation, chemical processing etc.
At most, I am able to take two course from the list.
In general, at this level, which ones do you think are most beneficial(practical purpose or for understanding)?
Please tell me any advices you have.
I have checked some similar thread in physicsforums. It seems some think optics at this level a bit dull.
