This is not to say that the curriculum is a "technology" curriculum.However, many of the tools and techniques used in the curriculum are found in industry. Thiscurriculum is ABET accredited. Figure 1 shows a flow diagram of the engineering courses. Thesolid lines show prerequisites and the dashed lines show co-requisites. Note that the last digit inthe course number indicates the number of credit hours for the course. All courses must be takenby the students with the exception of the electives in the dashed box.

Composed of periodic dielectric or metallic-cum-dielectric structures as shown in Fig. 1, PCs are designed to control the propagation ofelectromagnetic waves (EM) in ways similar to how the periodic potential in a semiconductorcrystal controls electron motion by defining allowed and forbidden electronic energy bands. Anelectromagnetic wave passing throughout an array of periodic scatterers will undergo destructiveinterference for certain combinations of wave-vectors at certain frequencies, thus
