Numerical programming and computer simulations are ubiquitous through all subjects in physics. Thus, computational physics has grown to be an appealing field for those who wish to acquire advanced and ...

In the early years of space exploration, scientists and engineers dreamed of sending vehicles to Mars that could land on the planet’s surface and explore its terrain. However, one of their biggest ...

I love including numerical calculations in my introductory and advanced physics courses. I find that including coding in the introductory physics course forces students to think in different ways to ...

The mere attendance of the lecture is valued at 2 CP. If the tutorials are completed as well (> 70 %), 3 CP are awarded. For this, the solutions to the problems must be handed in before the next ...

Parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) are fundamental in modelling a wide range of diffusion processes in physics, finance and engineering. The numerical approximation of these equations ...

Applied physics bridges the gap between physics, engineering, and other sciences. While engineers solve well-defined problems, applied physicists focus on applying physics interdisciplinarily. At ...

The Department of Physics and Engineering Physics offers major programs of lecture and laboratory instruction leading to the bachelor of science in physics and the bachelor of science in engineering ...
