Learning Outcomes
Students will possess basic knowledge of the physics associated with technology in the areas described in the course contents, and the readiness they will need to acquire advanced knowledge in technology in their further studies and the working world. They will be competent in solving various problems in physics using models (magnitude equations) and presenting their results appropriately.
Student's Workload
Total work load of the course: 80 hours, of which scheduled studies 48 h and autonomous studies 32 h.
Prerequisites / Recommended Optional Courses
No previous studies are required. Basic knowledge about mechanics and electromagnetism is strongly recommended.
