This page explains the course's required status, first-year placement, weekly schedule, and alternating-week arrangement with the chemistry course.

Required status and course details

In the 2025 curriculum records covered here, Fundamentals of Physics and Physics Experiments is listed as a required course in the relevant programmes. These include Design Engineering, Advanced Mechanical Engineering, Information and Communication Engineering, Electronics Systems Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Information Systems Engineering. An Engineering Faculty curriculum record also lists it among the required designated subjects. The course is assigned to the first year, carries 1 credit, and combines experiments and lectures.

Weekly schedule and alternating weeks

The course is offered for two class periods per week. It is scheduled in alternating weeks with Fundamentals of Chemistry and Chemistry Experiments, so the two courses do not run in the same week.
