Objectives
After passing the course, the student is able to demonstrate anunderstanding of scientific concepts, definitions, principles, andlaws related to the subject area.For the problems related to the subject area, the student is able to:- analyse them graphically- derive appropriate equations from relevant definitions andprinciples, and apply them to the given problem- apply university level mathematical techniques- verbally explain the results and evaluate if they are reasonableThe course includes laboratory experiments. After passing the course, the student is able to:- describe the connection between experiments and the theory presented at the lectures- perform guided scientific experiments, analyse and report their results and reliability- analyze quantitatively the results of the experiment and evaluate their reliability
