Introduction
The
4-year Bachelor of Science in Physics covers the major aspects of classical,
modem and applied physics. (Back to Top)
Foundation
Year
The
Foundation Year is the basic program for all University students, covering
general knowledge and some relevant method for academic research.
Classical physics, otherwise known as Newtonian physics, explains natural
phenomena above the scale of the atom. Classical physics covers mechanics,
electricity and magnetism, heat and light and is taught in years 1 and 2.
Modem physics covers atomic and nuclear physics, quantum mechanics and wave
theory and is covered in great detail from year 3. In year 4, students are
taught statistical physics, solid state physics and group theory. The advanced
mathematics and statistics required to study these subjects is also taught
by the Department of Physics.
The study of applied physics (engineering) is also included in the physics
degree. Its focus is on electronics and communication, as these are important
areas for the growing Information Technology (IT) sector in Cambodia.
Graduates in physics gain employment as teachers and in IT and related sectors.

Admission
All
applicants must have a High School Certificate and pass a National University
Entrance Examination on General Culture and Physics. Each year approximately
40 students are chosen for the English stream and 15 students for the French
stream. (Back to Top)
Assessment
At
present students are assessed on their understanding of theoretical know ledge
and practical experience through end of semester examinations. In the future,
grades may combine class assessment as well, including attendance, participation,
and laboratory work.

Quantum
field
Year 4, Semesters I & II
Dr. EAP Ponna, Dr. CHHOUMM Navy
Students
understand the limitations Hooft proved the renormalizability of Yang-Mills
theories, there has been a consequent dramatic increase in both the methods
and the applications of Quantum Field Theory. It Fill this gap by introducing
in a straightforward, calculatingly manner some of the tools used by the modern
Field Theorist. It is no longer possible to present perturbative Field Theory
pedagogically in one year-the days of the standard one-year course based on
QED are gone forever. A modern presentation must consist of at least three
parts-a first course emphasizing the structure and methods of perturbative
Field Theories, with the intent of acquainting the student with renormalization
theory and the evaluation of Feynman diagrams for gauge theories,-a second
course dealing with applications of gauge theories, centering around perturbative
calculations in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), Flavor Dynamics (Glashow-Weinberg-Salam
model), and possibly Grand Unified Theories, and finally a third course on
non-perturbative techniques. The approach is calculatingly-no proof of renormalizability
is given, only plausibility arguments and treated in great detail for theory,
but only lightly for gauge theories. The passage from Classical to Quantum
Field Theory is described in terms of the Feynman Path Integral, which is
appropriate to both perturbative and non-perturbative treatments. (Back

ElectronicCircuitsDesign 20936
Year 3, SemesterI & II
Mr. LONG Khy, Mr. TAY Vuthea
Students learn principles dictating the operation of electronic devices, and examine voltage and current characteristics of basic electronic devices, which are the building blocks for electronic circuits. They learn about the activities of components and how they are used in circuits, knowledge that will be expanded on in third year. Topics include fundamentals of electricity, semiconductors, diode semiconductors, and transistors. Students build their understanding of device theory and operations. They learn about activities in important circuits, the working of more complex analog systems, and are introduced to digital and computer systems. (Back to Top)

Year
2, Semesters I & II
Ms. NEY Sina, Mr. Hang Sim
Students
become familiar with laboratory instruments, gain an increased understanding
of physical principals, acquire skills in the manipulation of apparatus, gain
experience in the recording and reporting of results, and improve create scientific
methods of thinking of thinking about physical phenomena and practical skills
working with physical laboratory equipment including Mechanics (velocity,
acceleration, Newton's Laws, Dynamic Laws), Electricity and Magnetism (measurement
techniques), Thermodynamics and statistical Physics(gases heat transfer).
Introduction to the basic spectroscopy techniques used of investigation of
gases, liquids and solid state materials and practice experiments in optics
and electricity, learn experimental procedures, the laws of physics related
to given experiments, and how to use different kinds of laboratory equipment.

Electronics
Laboratory 20946, 20956
Year 3, Semesters I & II
Mr. Lang Khy, Mr. Tay Vuthea
Students
develop practical skills in analogue electronics, in conjunction with the
theory learnt in Electronics II and III. They learn how to design, build and
test circuits and analyze circuit behavior by taking measurements; compare
the results of practical experience with theoretical values and understand
how and why differences arise; use an oscilloscope and base frequency generator;
and build RC, forced oscillation, resonance, diode, and filter circuits. (Back

Year 4, Semesters I & II
Mr. Tay Vuthea, Mr. Long Khy
Students
link theory learnt in Electronics IV and V with actual practice. They learn
skills in building electronic circuits, such as soldering and printed circuit
board fabrication. They build and test circuits. Topics include DC power supply,
LED phasing, tone control, microphone, tuner, simple radios, repairing power
amplifiers. (Back to Top)
