Syllabus Information

5.1. Methodological overview

This course consists of three parts or different training activities:

 - The first training activity is the acquisition of fundamental physical concepts and their application to solving problems in specific scenarios. Such action will be implemented through 74 hours of theory classes and problems. Of these, 50 h will be devoted to the development of the proposed program. In these classes with computer presentations will be used, except for the most complex mathematical demonstrations that will take place on the blackboard. The remaining 24 hours will be devoted to solving problems and cases related to the program developed in the theoretical classes.

 - The second training activity are eight laboratory practices, two hours each, in which students will apply the knowledge acquired in the first training activity. In these sessions indications will be provided to the student for an autonomous work, but under supervision of the teacher.

 - In the third training activity students will perform complex problems in small and tutored groups on issues related to the program.

5.2. Learning tasks

1. Topics to be developed in the theory classes (50 hours):

 -See 5.3 Program.

2.  Classes of problem solving in small groups (24 hours):
