Learning objectives

The Integrated Course of Physical and Experimental Sciences
aims to provide to the students a solid knowledge and understanding of both the experimental method, and
the topics specified in the programs of the single modules.
The course also aims to develop the students' capability to apply such
knowledge and understanding in further University studies, in continuing
education and in their future professional expertise.

Teaching methods

The topics contained in the Programmes of the Modules will be illustrated
and discussed during classroom lectures.
In specific cases, lectures will be integrated by active teaching through
individual and group exercises and practical activities (as detailed in single modules description).

Assessment methods and criteria

The achievement of the objectives of the Integrated Course will be
assessed through oral or written exams, or practice tests, depending on
the specificity of the objectives of each module, and will consider the capabiliry of students to approach natural phenomena with a scientific methodology. More details are reported
in the description of each module.
The global evaluation, in thirtieths, will be based on the average of the results of single
Modules.
