Mathematics and Physics with Elements of Computer Science

The course aims to provide the basic knowledge of classical physics (mechanics, fluid mechanics, and electromagnetism). The topics are treated both in the theoretical aspects and in the application ones with some examples inherent to the present curriculum studii. The course, in addition to presenting the notions of physics propaedeutics to other courses (see Physiology or Chemistry-Physics), aims, as a fundamental course of the first year, to increase the ability to solve problems / exercises with a rigorous and quantitative approach. The Mathematics module will cover the most common statistical topics, as they represent the basis of dealing with experimental data; the course will also delineate quickly the basics of R, a commonly used statistical software.

At the end of the course, the student will learn the fundamental elements of the experimental method, the basic physical laws and will have the opportunity to see different applications of the same in fields related to the course of study. Furthermore, the student will have the opportunity to deepen the ability to deal with both abstract concepts and application examples with an increased.
