Module code: W4-FZ-BP-S2-4-25-11
Programme code: W4-S2FZA22.2025
Semester: summer semester 2026/2027
Language of instruction: English
Form of verification: exam
ECTS credits: 12
Purpose and description of the content of education:
The module includes a set of diploma courses, consisting of a lecture and a discussion part. For specific courses the discussion classes may consist of several hours of laboratory or computer classes. The diploma courses aim to deepen the student's knowledge in selected subjects of theoretical physics, experimental physics, simulation methods, and applied physics. This will be accomplished through a set of topics selected from theoretical physics, atomic and molecular physics, solid-state physics, astrophysics, particle physics, or nuclear physics. The courses’ subject will be defined by students with supervisors and approved yearly by physics’s didactic council. Within the theoretical physics track, two specialized lectures are proposed. For the experimental physics track, the suggested modules include: Physics of Magnetic Materials and Nanomaterials, and Numerical Modeling of Solid State. The nuclear physics track will consist of: Nuclear Reactions with Heavy Ions at Intermediate Energies, Computer Methods in Nuclear Research (analysis, software). The pharmaceutical engineering track may include, for example, the following modules: Physical Chemistry, Commercialization of Medicinal Products. Modifications to the above-presented tracks are possible depending on students' needs and interests.
