You will get an overview of modern economic physics. It will be an advantage for you if you already know about classical mechanics and electrodynamics, differential and integral equations.
You will be guided by the Professors in techniques to create and detect particles and forces in detail. You will be able to design a standard model of particle physics and search for new theories of particle physics beyond the common ones in this course.
Assessment
This course does not involve any written exams. Students need to answer 5 assignment questions to complete the course, the answers will be in the form of written work in pdf or word. Students can write the answers in their own time. Each answer needs to be 200 words (1 Page). Once the answers are submitted, the tutor will check and assess the work.
Certification
Edukite courses are free to study. To successfully complete a course you must submit all the assignment of the course as part of the assessment. Upon successful completion of a course, you can choose to make your achievement formal by obtaining your Certificate at a cost of £49.
Having an Official Edukite Certification is a great way to celebrate and share your success. You can:
- Add the certificate to your CV or resume and brighten up your career
