Main themes |
Physics is considered as an experimental science based on the precise observation of reality, on the collection of pertinent data and on assumptions to be validated. The course starts with some revisions in mathematics and statistics, followed by a detailed study of mechanics, periodic phenomena and thermal physics.
|
Aims |
The objective of this course is twofold: education and training. On one hand, the aim is to instil in the students a right method of approaching scientific matters and on the other hand, to provide them with all the elements necessary to a good understanding of the technical world they will be confronted with in a next future.
According to the course of study, priority is given to applications dealing with life sciences.
