What is physics? Particle physics Biophysics Condensed matter Theoretical physics Environmental physics Astrophysics Physics is concerned with the quantitative observation, understanding and prediction of natural phenomena
Why study physics?
Why study physics? We choose to go to the Moon  in this decade  and do the other things,  not because they are easy, but because  they are hard, because  that goal will serve to organize  and measure the best of  our energies and skills,  Because that challenge is one  that we are willing to accept. (J.F.Kennedy)
Why study physics? Physics as a liberal art Culture as a payoff from studying science
The fundamentals •  (classical) mechanics •  electromagnetism •  quantum physics •  thermodynamics •  statistical physics •  wave phenomena •  optics •  properties of matter: their elementary constituents and interactions.
Experimental and theoretical discipline

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. most people do not follow a straight and obvious career path
  2. Professor Frink. Several Simpsons writers have backgrounds in maths and science.
  3. Physics is a hierarchical discipline that requires systematic exposure and ordered as well as structured acquisition of knowledge. It is a subject which relies on experiment and observation as the source of our knowledge of the physical universe but which complements this with theoretical constructs based on a fairly small number of all embracing principles and laws oen expressed and developed using mathematics.
  4. Why Study Mathematics or Physics? The most obvious reason is for the love and interest of the subject: choose mathematics and you choose one of the most powerful tools for analysis and problem-solving known to mankind; choose physics and you choose a subject providing an understanding of how the universe works from the smallest atomic particle to the largest galaxy.  O Sei innamorato e vuoi farlo tutta la vita o vuoi le cose complesse e poi ti muovi su altro
  5. Physics is a maturing and demanding discipline. An understanding of the frontiers of physics oen requires advanced knowledge, which cannot necessarily be acquired during a bachelor degree programme. Perché la fai 1)
  6. Physics is not only a discipline which is required for scientific and technical professionals, it is also an essential part of our understanding of all aspects of nature and the principles andmethods which allow us to understand the universe. As such it has wide and deep cultural dimensions and its study is of universal value. It forms the foundation of many of the sciences and their applications.
  7. ‘ Studying physics at a university brings benefits that last a lifetime and knowledge and skills that are valuable outside the field of physics. Such benefits include a practical approach to problem solving, often using mathematical formulation and solution, the ability to reason clearly and to communicate complex ideas, IT and self-study skills, along with the pleasure and satisfaction that comes from being able to understand the latest discoveries in physics
  8. Education an culture DG 2099 A European Specification for Physics bachelor studies 2) Cosa fai
