Objectives and competences
The acquired knowledge will enable the students to understand the electrical and magnetic properties of the materials important in electrical engineering. The students will acquire a general education in technical and natural sciences and gain better understanding of theoretical and experimental methods in natural and technical sciences.
Learning and teaching methods
Lectures, tutorials, demonstrative experiments during lectures and lectures of visiting professors from abroad.
Intended learning outcomes
Basic knowledge of electrical properties of materials which are important in electrical engineering. The application of the acquired knowledge in the fields of optics and atomics in different fields of electrotechnics.
Successful completion of the course will provide the students with:
– education in fundamental atomics and optics, preparing them for a future as problem solvers or researchers in industry and in research institutes
– a good basic education in atomics and optics suitable for a career in high-technology industry.
After completion of the course the students should be also able to/of:
-use the basic theoretical tools of atomics and optics that are needed for the more specialised courses in electrical engineering,
-application of the basic laws of atomics and optics to solve the general problems in electrical engineering,
– solve practical problems in engineering , which prepare the students for independent research and development work in reserach institutes and in the industry ,
– solve complex interdisciplinary engineering problems, requiring a knowledge and understanding of atomics and optics, as well as experience with analytical tools from the field of physics.
