| Course abstract | |
| Course of physics is mastered within lectures, practice works and individual studies. Physics basic knowledge gives essential concepts and critical understanding of how to use it in real-world process description. | |
| 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. 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 exam. |
