Learning Outcomes
| Learning outcomes |
The course provides an introduction to theoretical physics, and aims to broaden the knowledge of Mechanics already gained even in secondary education, with the basic criterion being the mathematical formalism of physical problems. Therefore, the course introduces the basic concepts of Classical Mechanics and their application to particles, particle systems and continuous media.
