Learning activities and methodology
- Lectures on the specific topics. Provide a theoretical background on physics. They will be imparted by face-to face online sessions. - Recitation classes for solving assigned problems and discussion of specific concepts previously addressed. - Practical laboratoy sessions. Students must carry out experimental measurements and analyse the results - Office hours
