This course emphasizes on numerical methods and computer program applications to solve problems. Statistical analysis methods that can be programmed in computers will also be taught. It is anticipated that students will learn about different approaches to solve engineering problems and be able to identify the ones that best applied to any given problem. The course is designed and implemented to help students apply open education technology including open educational resources (OER) and Web 2.0 to foster a lifelong learning culture.

The aim of this course are to give knowledge and understanding on semiconductor physics, from the fundamental of semiconductor materials, energy band, charge carrier concentration and transport, p-n and metal-semiconductor junction and its applications such as MOSFET, MESFET, BJT, JFET, optoelectronics and other advanced devices.

The aim of this course is to introduce the principle and fundamental theory of optical sensing, techniques and their applications. Starting with familiarization of the fundamental knowledge of optical sources, photodetectors and optical elements, this course discusses several fundamental optical sensing techniques and measurements. Furthermore, how an optical sensor are utilized to measure most common physical quantities are described in detail. Finally, this course also cover several advanced optical measurement techniques to be used in research and industries.

The aim of the course is to discuss the fundamentals of research to assist students in understanding the basic methods in performing research in the field of engineering education. The students will be taught on the understanding and reviewing of writing research material, understanding of the basics of sampling techniques and the basics of design of experiment together with statistical modelling techniques theoretically and computationally. The contents of the course encompass basic concepts in research, research philosophy, literature review, the development of aim, objective, hypothesis and scope of research, a quantitative analysis via SPSS/R, the basis of scientific journal writing and ethics in publication.
