Final Year Project (FYP)

PH4405 - 10 AU, Two-semester frontier research projects in experimental, theoretical, and computational spintronics.

Course Overview

In this course, registered students undertake a research project over two semesters. FYP assessments include supervisor input, thesis report, viva examination, and oral presentation.

Our research group constantly accepts undergraduate students for experimental, theoretical, and modeling projects. Our state-of-the-art nano- and micro-fabrication laboratory, computation workstation facility, and supportive guidance from full-time researchers provide quality science and engineering training. Both technical skills (mechanical, electrical, electronics) and research methodology/analysis receive special emphasis. We aim to produce quality graduates who possess strong analytical skills and hands-on groundwork experience. Our FYP physics students routinely produce international conference and peer-reviewed journal papers.

We have trained more than 20 FYP students who have embarked on careers in microelectronics engineering, manufacturing engineering, defense research, materials research, ICT, teaching, civil defense, and beyond.
