At the end of the course, students will be able to :
understand the basic notions and concepts of classical mechanics and waves
Apply this knowledge to the understanding of various physical phenomena, whether or not related to living organisms.
Students will be encouraged to explore the subject in depth, going beyond mere knowledge of laws and concepts. Particular attention will be paid to mathematical rigor, scientific reasoning and critical thinking.
The objectives of the teaching unit are:
To provide a solid knowledge base in physics, more specifically in fields related to classical mechanics and wave phenomena.
To be able to recognize the physical principles at work in applications related to living and non-living organisms
Lectures with PowerPoint support supplemented by experiments carried out in front of the students and interactive MCQs via an online application.
Exercise sessions (TD), supervised by assistants, are organized in small groups, enabling students to apply the various theoretical concepts (Syllabi available on WebCampus).
A forum, supervised by teaching assistants, is available for answering questions and requesting remediation.
Written exam: theory and exercices, closed books
