You can solve the problems of physics and technics using the laws and methods of thermal physics.
You can measure the quantities of thermal physics, study the laws of thermal physics experimentally and report the results.
Content
What are the basic phenomena, the most important quantities, units, definitions and laws of nature in thermal physics?
How can you use the laws and methods of thermal physics to solve problems in physics and technique?
How can you measure the quantities of thermal physics, study the laws of thermal physics experimentally and report the results?

Teaching methods
Scheduled track:
You will attend teaching and guidance sessions as specified in the weekly schedule.
Your study routine is determined by the scheduled group sessions and by the self-study assignments.
Independent track:
You can speed up your studies by, for example, choosing independent modes of completing assignments, e.g. online, or by selecting courses from the schedule of another group.
Independent learning assignments require more self-study of the subject field compared with the learning route that is based on a working week.
Exam schedules
Two resit exams
Completion alternatives
You can speed up your studies by, for example, choosing independent modes of completing assignments, e.g. online, or by selecting courses from the schedule of another group.
Independent learning assignments require more self-study of the subject field compared with the learning route that is based on a working week.
Student workload
135 h, of which about 60 hours are worked in a classroom and exams. About 20 hours are laboratory measurements. Homeworks, exam preparations and report writing takes the rest of the time.
Evaluation scale
1-5
Assessment methods and criteria
