Objectives of the course programme (competences)

Students will be introduced to the fundamental physical quantities and laws of classical mechanics. They will acquire basic skills in experimental work, as well as in the calculation and proper interpretation of the results obtained from the areas covered in the course content. The students' theoretical knowledge will provide a solid foundation for the further development necessary to understand and model the various processes where informatics and computer engineering are applied.
