Senior Physics Lab, Workman, NMIMT
Senior lab is an upper level physics laboratory course intended to provide students with experience in taking and analyzing experimental measurements. Course work emphasizes problem solving in the lab, and error assesment of measurements.

Lectures are held twice weekly, during which background theory, operation procedures, and error analysis is discussed. Lab work is to be completed outside of class.

Students are required to complete four experiments and write a publication quality abstract for each. In addition, a complete report must accompany one of the abstracts. Grading is based on experiment abstracts and reports, as well as occassional homework problems and a final exam.
