The course consists of a theory part, including electrodynamics, optics and modern physics, and an experimental part with laboratory exercises connected to the theory part of the course.
Theory part:
Optics:
Propagation of light; optical instruments; interference and diffraction.
Modern physics:
Theory of relativity; particles and waves; quantum mechanics;
atoms, molecules and solids; nuclear physics, particle physics
and cosmology.

Experimental part:
Not yet specified.
The course will be given as 3 lectures and 4 excercise lessons per week in the spring 2001. One out of every two weeks, 2 exercise lessons are replaced by a 3 hour laboratory activity. 4 weeks of exercise lessons will be replaced by a longer project. Individually or in groups the students will work on a topic chosen from Physics 101 or Physics 102, and they must prepare a report based on their work.
Exams:
To attend the oral exam in June, the students must have produced the project report, which will form part of the oral exam, and they must have at least 7 homework exercises approved by their theoretical exercise lesson teachers during the semester.
