Senior Lecturer and Director of Semiconductor Curriculum

Dr. Tony Barsic is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Electrical and Biomedical Engineering at ¶¶Òõ̽̽. His areas of expertise are optics, image processing, and calibration. Prior to joining ¶¶Òõ̽̽, Dr. Barsic worked at the University of Colorado's Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics. There, he helped to design, build, and calibrate the instrument in NASA's ISS-based Climate Absolute Radiance and Refractivity Observatory mission. Other past work: 3D super-resolution microscopy, computational imaging, geometrical optical system design.

Dr. Barsic has taught classes from freshman through graduate level. Topics include: seminars, introductory programming, circuits, signal processing, electromagnetics, bio-medical Instrumentation, geometrical optics, and optics labs.
