Offer 1 with catalog number 1017198BNR for all students in the 2nd semester at a (B) Bachelor - advanced level.
The intention is to provide insights on the introduction level in the quantum description of the microphysical world. The theory will be built from the experimental observations and the historical developments that underlie quantum physics. At the end of the course we reach a quantum mechanical description of the hydrogen atom.

The student has a deep comprehension of the foundations and rules of the Quantum Theory.
This covers the abstract mathematical concepts that are necessary for the formulation of the quantum theory as well as the series of crucial experiments and conceptual revolutions that accompanied the genesis of the Quantum Theory.
Last but not least the student must be able to adopt different (classical and quantum) representations of the world.
The final grade is composed based on the following categories:
Oral Exam determines 50% of the final mark.
Written Exam determines 50% of the final mark.
Within the Oral Exam category, the following assignments need to be completed:
Within the Written Exam category, the following assignments need to be completed:
A written exam will test the students ability to solve typical exercises in quantum physics, while an oral exam will test the students ability with respect to the interpretation and use of quantum physical concepts.
