Engineering physicsLaajuus (6 cr)

Objective

This course offers the frame of reference, within which the student is given an opportunity to master key physical fundamentals and characteristic approaches in engineering:
- Make use of The International System of Units to interpret and explain engineering knowledge.
- Interpret and solve physical quantity equations together with their results and variations in physical quantities and their influences.
- Explain dependences between physical quantities by defining new physical quantities and interpreting natural phenomena.
- Evaluate validity and application of used physical and engineering concepts and methods.
- Generalize fundamental physical concepts and principles together with fundamental interactions and conservation laws as unifying element in physical phenomena.
