Description

The Physics II subject belongs to the basic Physics subject of industrial engineering degrees. The various topics discussed in the subject are designed to train students to learn new theories and methods that they will need in later subjects of the degree. It enables them to solve problems with initiative, to communicate and transmit knowledge and to carry out measurements and calculations.
