	Teaching Methods
	TEACHING INCLUDES LECTURES FOR A TOTAL OF 56 HOURS (7 CREDITS), NUMERICAL EXERCISES FOR 24 HOURS (2 CREDITS) AND LABORATORY FOR A TOTAL OF 36 HOURS (3 CREDIT). THE CLASSROOM ATTENDANCE RATE IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED AND THAT OF LABORATORY EXERCISES IS MANDATORY. TO BE ABLE TO ACCESS TO THE FINAL EXAM, STUDENTS MUST HAVE ATTENDED AT LEAST 70% OF THE EXPECTED LABORATORY HOURS. THE ATTENDANCE VERIFICATION MODE IS ANNOUNCED BY THE TEACHER AT THE BEGINNING OF THE COURSE

	Verification of learning
	THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE TEACHING OBJECTIVES IS CERTIFIED BY PASSING AN UNIVERSITY SCHEDULED EXAMINATION SCORED FROM 0-30. THE EXAM CONSISTS OF TWO PARTS: A WRITTEN TEST AND AN ORAL EXAM. DURING THE COURSE, THREE WRITTEN TESTS ARE SCHEDULED WITH MONTHLY CADENCE.PASSING THESE TESTS, WITH AVERAGE EVALUATION HIGHER THAN 16, ALLOWS THE EXEMPTION FROM THE WRITTEN TEST. ACCESS TO WRITTEN TEST IS ALLOWED ONLY AFTER DELIVERING WRITTEN REPORTS OF THE LAB WORKS. THE WRITTEN TEST IS PRELIMINARY TO THE ORAL EXAMINATION AND CONSISTS OF THREE NUMERICAL EXERCISES ON SUBJECTS OF THE TEACHING PROGRAM. THE TEST TAKES PLACE BEFORE THE ORAL TEST AND IS CONSIDERED TO BE PASSED BY ACHIEVING THE MINIMUM SCORE REQUIRED. THE WRITTEN TEST USUALLY HAS A DURATION OF 120 MINUTES AND IS AIMED AT VERIFYING THE ABILITY TO PROPERLY APPLY THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE. THE TEST CONTAIN THREE NUMERICAL EXERCISES, ONE FOR EACH MAJOR SUBJECT OF THE COURSE, QUANTUM MECHANICS, THERMODYNAMICS, AND STATISTICAL THERMODYNAMICS. THE ORAL TEST CONSISTS OF AN INTERVIEW WITH QUESTIONS AND DISCUSSION ON THEORETICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL CONTENT LISTED IN THE TEACHING PROGRAM AND IS DESIGNED TO ENSURE THE LEVEL OF KNOWLEDGE AND SKILL UNDERSTANDING REACHED BY THE STUDENT, AS WELL AS TESTING THE EXPOSURE CAPACITY BY USING THE APPROPRIATE TERMINOLOGY
