COURSE DESCRIPTION

Course objectives

The basic and the inseparable part of all physics research is the experiment. The aim of this course is to introduce the students to various techniques of conducting experiments and methods of measuring the physics quantities fom the field of electromagnetism and optics. Additionaly, the aim is to enable the development of skills needed to conduct experiments, gather dana and master various numerical problems, which are related to measuring and testing physics quantities.
