Engineering Applications in Classical and Modern Physics
4.5 credits
Bachelor's level
Autumn Term 2025
About the course
The purpose of the course is to give the student an insight into how applications of classical and modern physics are used to solve technical problems in society. The course begins with an overview lecture that connects the areas of classical mechanics, modern physics, electromagnetism and wave theory. The connections are described with an overview of some selected engineering applications that will be discussed in detail during the course. For each engineering application covered during the course, the students are tasked with studying and researching selected references in the field. The course ends with a lecture where all engineering applications are summarized and linked to courses that are available in each area.
This course contains occasions that are included in a degree programme at Umeå university and applies only to those of you who are admitted to the programme. You will receive information about application times and what applies to you from your institution.
