HUT Advanced Energy Systems
Courses and Seminars, Fall 2003
HUT / Department of Engineering Physics and Mathematics / Advanced Energy Systems / Courses and Seminars, Fall 2003

The laboratory of Advanced Energy Systems is responsible for a wide variety of courses. While the emphasis is on courses with quite highly specialized topics, the selection includes also a few mandatory, basic physics courses. In addition to lecture-type courses, we also offer three laboratory courses and several seminar-type courses, both of which develop skills directly relevant to ‘real life’: searching for information independently, documentation skills, and presenting complicated issues in a comprehensive manner. 

The amount of work involved in a given study module is expressed in study credit units (cr), the value of which is shown in parenthesis for each study module. One cr signifies about 40 hours of effective work by an average student, i.e. one week of full-time study. 

L = lectures, C = coordination, R = recitations. 
 


Tfy-0.201 Physics III (5cr) Topi
Third part of basic physics for physics students. Introduction to quantum physics and structure of matter: theoretical and experimental foundations of quantum mechanics; Schrödinger's equation; atoms with one and several electrons; molecules; basic statistical physics; solid-state physics; nuclei, elementary particles, and fundamental interactions.

Tfy-56.111 Radiation Protection (1 cr) Topi
This course has been removed from our study programme. It is thus neither lectured nor any more required as a prerequisite to our laboratory courses. Exams will still be arranged. See Topi for dates. The compulsory demonstrations, which were a part of the course, will be arranged for students taking the exams.
