Abstract :
An integrated undergraduate course dealing with the basic principles of laboratory practices, including instrumentation, measurements, modeling, simulation and design is described. The dual role of the computer for automated data reduction and simulating experiments is emphasized. Under the supervision of a faculty member, the student is guided from a dependent state to the project design stage.
