Computing and Solid-State Device Technology (CaST)
Computing and Solid-State Device Technology is a unique undergraduate program of studies
combining a thorough training in physics and natural sciences with an extensive education
in computing. It offers a four-year honours program leading to a Bachelor of Science in
Computing and Solid-State Device Technology degree as well as a
Co-Op option. The program
emphasizes practical aspects of computing; use of computer-based and other solid-state
electronic devices in control, manufacturing and research; and the skills needed to
interface and use solid-state devices in real-world applications. Students participating
in this program should expect a considerable lab load.
This is an interdisciplinary program with emphasis on the practical aspects of computing
and applications of solid-state device technology. Students who want a deeper theoretical
understanding might want to consider a Physics and Computer Science combined major
program.
