Entry knowledge
Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
Participation at seminars and gaining of at least 18 points from the control work in theoretical exercise (Mechanics - 8 points, Physical field - 8 points, 20 points in the exercises). If the student fails to fulfill this condition, the teacher may set a substitute grant condition. The remaining 64 points can be obtained after a successful oral exam. To qualify for a credit, at least 50% of points for each part (4 points, 4 points, 10 points) must be met. A minimum of 50% points (32 points) must be awarded for the successful passing of the exam. The assessment of the test takes into account the point assessment of the exercise.
Aims
Students will obtain basic knowledge of mechanics, theory of physical field and wave and quantum physics
