Module title:Practical Physics I
Module codePHY1027
Module lecturers:Prof. V.V. Kruglyak
Module credits:15

This module provides a broad foundation in experimental physics, upon which practical work in StageĀ 2 and subsequent years builds. It starts with a short series of lectures, supplemented with a problem set, on error analysis and graph plotting. Laboratory work is normally undertaken in pairs, with support from demonstrators. Experiments are recorded in lab-books and presented as formal reports. The last of the experiments is done as a larger group and involves joint work on a poster, presented in a conference-like environment, and a formal report. Another component of this module is the PHY0000 Communication and Key Skills course.
