Textbook(s) / Required Reading Grading Criteria

Academic Honesty

1- Quantum Mechanics (World Scientific Pub. Co. Singapore. 1990) by Feyyazuddin and Riyazuddin. nd 2- Quantum Mechanics 2 Ed. (Pearson Education, 2000) by Bransden and Joachain.. Midterm Exam I : 30% Term Paper : 30% Final Exam : 40% Individual accountability for all individual work, written or oral. Copying from others or providing answers or information, written or oral, to others is cheating. Providing proper acknowledgment of original author. Copying from another students paper or from another text without written acknowledgement is plagiarism. According to Universitys bylaws cheating and plagiarism are serious offences resulting in a failure from exam or project and disciplinary action (which includes an official warning that may appear in students transcript or/and suspension from University for up to one semester).
