Prerequisites
Completion of obligatory courses of general and theoretical physics in bachelor study programme.
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is offered to students of any study field.
Course objectives
The course summarizes key parts of the bachelor study programme Physics. It recapitulates fundaments of both general and theoretical physics, illustrating them solving more complex physical problems. The aim of the course is to give students a global review and perspective based on integrating physical ideas, general approaches and understanding of wider context. Results and treatments of individual disciplines are used, without their detailed repetition. Topics of state exam are discussed too and analysed problems can serve as inspiration for written part of the state exam.

At the end of the course a student is able to:
- understand integrating physical ideas, general approaches and wider context,
- explain them on particular examples and practical solution of problems (formulated during the course, e.g. also following the interest of students).
Learning outcomes
At the end of the course a student is able to:
