Subject Expert Name: Dr. Khawaja Qasim Maqbool
To develop the students’ knowledge and understanding of the basic laws and principles of physics, their
practical applications and to develop an appreciation of how these laws and principles operate in
experimental and applied physics.
This freshmen level course has been designed to provide an introduction to the ideas and concepts of
Applied Physics that would serve as a foundation for subsequent electronic engineering courses. The
primary objective is to endow the knowledge of a wide variety of electric and magnetic phenomena along
with their scientific applications, specifically, in the field of electronic engineering. The course initiates
with a short review of relevant mathematics, immediately followed by the basics of electricity at the atomic
level. A majority of the course is then dedicated for electric and magnetic fields, forces, elements and their
applications.
Course Learning Outcomes
After successful completion of this course, the students should be able to:
1. Develop the ability to record readings using different measurements
tools
2.Demonstrate an understanding of basic laws of Physics through relevant
experimentation
3.Show knowledge of constructing an electronic circuit for a given set of
constraints

The applied physics undergraduate program stresses the basic physics that underlies most developments in
engineering and the mathematical tools that are important to both physicists and engineers. Since the
advances in most branches of technology lead to rapid changes in state-of-the-art techniques, the applied
physics program provides the student with a broad base of fundamental science and mathematics while
retaining the opportunity for specialization through technical electives.
