Course Objectives

Provide students with the fundamentals of Physics needed for carrying out their future activities, with particular regard to understanding the physical principles underlying the functioning and use of the equipment necessary for the control and detection of living matter phenomena in the biological and medical context. Allow the students to acquire the basic preparation for the correct use of this instrumentation.

Course Prerequisites

Knowledge of high school mathematics.

Teaching Methods

The course includes frontal teaching, divided into lessons of 2 hours depending on the academic calendar. The frontal teaching consists of theoretical lessons and practical application with exercises. During the lessons, the main topics of the teaching are explained with examples on the blackboard or on a computer.

Assessment Methods

The exam will take place in written form and the topics examined will reflect those addressed during the lessons and present in the program.
In particular, both the topics relating to the basic principles and those relating to the applications of these principles to the investigation techniques specific to the specific CdS will be examined. The exam method and its evaluation will be indicated by the teacher at the beginning of the lessons. The evaluation will take place on the basis of knowledge of the topics covered by the exam questions and the student's logical-argumentative skills. For the purposes of the evaluation, the quality of the presentation will also be taken into consideration with particular reference to the competence in the use of specialist vocabulary.
