LEARNING OUTCOMES
Taking this course will give you the opportunity to study applications of fiber optics and laser technology.
The main part is a research project related to fiber lasers, supercontinuum generation or fiber sensors for which the student returns a report and gives a presentation.
You may choose to work with the simulation tool RP Fiber Power from RP Photonics to understand the operation of a high-power fiber amplifier or laser or to work in an optics lab.
