Learning outcomes
a) Knowledge. The student has knowledge of the phenomena and laws of nuclear and atomic physics and the basics of solid state physics.
b) Skills. The student is able to clearly interpret and describe nuclear and atomic phenomena. Understands the essence and specificity of atomic and nuclear physics and the basics of solid state physics. Based on the acquired knowledge, he or she knows how to apply a mathematical apparatus to solve accounting problems.
c) Social competences. The student knows what the processes taking place in atoms, atomic nuclei and a solid are based on.
Assessment criteria
- Written 2 x test in the during of the semester
- Final written and oral examination
- As part of the exercises in the subject of Physics IV, the student is required to perform 10 projects - tasks included in the worksheets.
The following evaluation criteria are adopted for all effects in all forms of verification:
rating 5: fully achieved (no noticeable shortcomings),
rating 4.5: almost fully achieved and the criteria for awarding a higher rating are not met,
grade 4: achieved to a significant extent and the criteria for awarding a higher grade are not met,
grade 3.5: achieved to a significant extent - with a clear predominance of positives - and the criteria for awarding a higher grade are not met,
rating 3: achieved for most cases covered by the verification and the criteria for awarding a higher rating are not met,
grade 2: not achieved for most cases under review.
Practical placement
There are no apprenticeships
