Learning Outcomes of UE

The activity aims to improve the student's experimental skills through experiments related to areas of physics underlying certain biomedical applications.

By the end of the course unit, the student will be able to:
-write a protocol describing a simple experiment in detail
-read a simple protocol and reproduce the procedure accurately and correctly
-use Excel to produce graphs and perform basic calculations
-manage their time effectively when carrying out an experiment
-present experimental results clearly and rigorously in a report
-quantitatively estimate measurement errors
