KP7_WG3 - issues related to tools and methods used in various fields of physics, and within the scope of the education program, medical applications
KP7_WG4 - specialized research tools used in a selected field of physics, including, within the scope of the education program, measurement procedures used in medical physics
Skills, the graduate is able to:
KP7_UW1 - properly select mathematical models to solve and analyze physical problems
KP7_UW2 - select and apply in practice research tools appropriate for a given field of physics
KP7_UK3 - use English at the B2+ level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages
Social competences, the graduate is ready to:
KP7_KK1 - constantly improving one's own competences, taking into account the rapid progress in the field of physics
KP7_KK2 - critically assessing the knowledge one has, dealing with real research and applied problems
Assessment criteria
The final grade is the arithmetic mean of the percentage points obtained on the basis of two tests, according to the following conversion:
51%-62 - 3
63-72 - 3.5
73-82 - 4
83-92 - 4.5
93-100% - 5
The number of unexcused hours qualifying for failure of the Laboratory is 20% of the duration of the laboratory classes.
