Teaching method
The course is divided in lectures and problem solving sessions. The lectures will be held in two sessions each week, lasting one hour and include four assessment tests.
The problem solving sessions will be delivered once a week, lasting 1 hour each. These sessions aim the discussions of the physical phenomena introduced in the lectures.
Evaluation method
3 tests of 1 hour
