Physics is a discipline which has observation and experimental validation at its heart. This unit continues the development of key experimental skills, the use of various standard pieces of apparatus and analysis of data. The experiments allow for student input into design and measurement. Transferable skills are included by having formal write-up of experiments, an assessment viva for each experiment, a group presentation within a class conference structure. The unit also allows for computing skills to be taught and used, with a requirement to produce one computational exercise for assessment.
