Module name: Physics Laboratory I: Optics and Structure of Matter
Module code: W4-FZ-S1-4-23-16
Programme code: W4-S1FZ19.2025
Semester: summer semester 2026/2027
Language of instruction: Polish
Form of verification: course work
ECTS credits: 3
Purpose and description of the content of education:
The laboratory aim is to complement the content of the Fundamentals of physics: optics and structure of matter by developing students' skills in planning and solving physical problems using simple experiments in optics and structure of matter. During the laboratory, students will perform experiments and collect data necessary to prepare reports. They analyze and discuss the obtained results with the calculation of measurement uncertainties.
