UC Irvine Adds Optical Certificate Programs

Abstract:
The University of California - Irvine, announced the availability of two new certificate programs designed for engineering professionals: Optical Engineering and Optical Instrument Design. Both certificate programs are designed to meet the growing demand for skilled professionals who can conceptualize, design and manufacture optical and optomechanical components, systems and instruments. Available for the first time this fall quarter, registration for courses begin now.

"An increasing amount of today's consumer, industrial and business products incorporate optical and optomechanical systems, which are becoming essential to virtually every industry including defense, medical, clean energy, nanotechnology, automotive, electronics, communications, entertainment, computers and consumer products," said Dr. Dave Dimas, director of UC Irvine Extension's engineering, sciences and information technology programs.
