After successful completion of the course, students are able to...

• describe the nature of physics, the objectives and employed methods and knowing how to apply them
• explicate the meaning and benefits of physical units and how to use them to assess results
• encompass and evaluate physical occurrences in terms of quality and quantity using the basic principles of classical physics and formulate statements regarding the procedures

• Basic principles of classical physics
• Main emphasis: Kinematics, dynamics, conservation of energy, conservation of momentum, Newton's laws, forces, acoustics, geometrical and wave optics, as well as thermodynamics
• Prospects of modern physics, statisticial methods, Intenational System of Units, and manufacturing

• Systematic derivation of the theoretical principles in the lectures
• Interspersed practical application of the scientific findings to illustrative examples
• Related in advance query of students' estimates 
• Exercises for self-reliant practicing for each lecture section (solution for self- assessment provided in the following week) 

• Written exams - examples requiring comprehension and application of the derived insight have to be solved (prevailing calculation of values, few questions directed towards comprehension)
• Evaluation by utilizing a multiple choice questionnaire
