There are no prerequisites.
Introduction to Physics as a paradigm of empirical science. Exemplary problems from different physical disciplines will be presented. Theories that describe them will be introduced, analyzing and justifying the abstraction that they entail. The general principles of these theories and their mathematical formulation will be identified, and the numerical methods necessary to tackle complex problems of difficult analytical solution will be presented.
Notice: The proposed teaching methodology and assessment may be subject to change depending on attendance restrictions imposed by health authorities.
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

The competences acquired will be evaluated by the Continuous Assessment method, which will include two types: Deliveries of Exercises (individual or collective) and Continuous Evaluation Tests.
The Continuous Assessment will be carried out in a total of 6 actions distributed throughout the school period. The types of actions will be:
Each Continuous Assessment Test will only contribute to the final grade if 35.0% of the maximum score for said test is reached.
Deliveries will consist of carrying out an analysis of a physical system before a deadline and summarizing said analysis in a report that will be delivered in writing or by telematic means. This will allow students to demonstrate their understanding of the contents of the theory classes and solving exercises and the acquisition of skills.
The Tests will consist of solving exercises and / or answering questions in writing or by telematic means, in person or virtually, with a limited time. This will allow students to demonstrate their understanding of the contents of the theory classes and solving exercises and the acquisition of skills.
The place and form of delivery, as well as the date and time of the tests or the deadline date and time of the deliveries will be announced through the Moodle Classroom at least one week in advance.
The place, date and time of the reviews of the results of the evaluations will be announced through the Moodle Classroom 48 hours in advance.
The condition to pass the course will be to obtain at least 50% of the maximum score.
The Honor grade will be assigned, within the allowed quotas, to students who demonstrate sustained very high academic performance throughout the school term.
The condition of Not Evaluable will be applied to students who do not take some or all of the Continuous Assessment Tests without just cause.
The correction of the Continuous Assessment Tests and the Exercise Deliveries will take into account the correct application of the contents of the subject to solve the proposed exercises and also the way in which the solutions and results are presented. In particular, solutions will be required to be presented in an orderly manner, with an appropriate level of detail, and to follow a logical flow of resolution.
Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures that are deemed appropriate, and in accordance with current academic regulations, irregularities committed by the student that may lead to a variation in the rating of an evaluation act will be graded with a zero. Therefore, copying or allowing a practice or any other assessment activity to be copied will imply failing with a zero, and if it is necessary to pass it to pass, the entire subject will be suspended. Assessment activities graded in this way and by this procedure will not be recoverable, and therefore the subject will be suspended directly without the opportunity to recover it in the same academic year.
