| Course abstract | |
| Course of Physics consists of three parts and it is mastered within lectures, exercises, laboratory works and individual studies. The knowledge of Physics is essential for understanding of processes in energetics correlations in Physics, forms the basis for new innovations in economy. By solving the exercises in Physics the analytical thinking is developed. Modern specialists should know the basis of Physics for developing the worldview and creative use of physical correlations in practical activities. | |
| Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
| After completing the course students will have:
1. knowledge about regularity of essential concepts of physics and critical understanding of how to use it in real-world process description. – The knowledge is assessed in laboratory works and tests. 2. skills to use measurements of physical quantities and apply knowledge in calculation for their branch of research, summarize and analytically describe the results. – The skills are assessed in laboratory works. 3. competence to evaluate results of measurements and calculations, problem solving and understand what influence their professional activities have on environment. – The competence is assessed in laboratory works and tests and exam. |

| Requirements for awarding credit points | |
| 1)Passing the test (min. 50% of maximum points, each test – 10 points):
2)Laboratory works must be performed and defended: 3) Passing the written exam. |
|
| Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work | |
| Each student must process the experimental data obtained during the laboratory work (it is necessary to perform calculations in accordance to the assignment and, if required in the assignment, to plot a graph), and document the results in accordance to the requirements, as well as prepare for the defence of laboratory work by independently studying the study literature. | |
| Criteria for Evaluating Learning Outcomes | |
| 1) Theory and practical tests – 4; 2) Laboratory works (work and defence) - 8. | |
