Geometric Optics Course
Build expertise in geometric optics for practical imaging systems. Learn thin-lens design, ray tracing, aberration management, and tolerance budgeting to create compact, high-resolution optical setups for physics and engineering challenges. Develop confidence in analysing multi-element systems, controlling image quality, and predicting performance limits with simple tools.

What will I learn?
Gain hands-on skills to design and analyse compact imaging systems confidently. Master thin-lens equations, magnification, ray tracing, and sign conventions, then use them for multi-lens setups, folded optics, and tolerance analysis. Conquer aberrations, alignment, depth of field, and reporting to keep your designs precise, efficient, and properly documented.
