(Knowledge): Knowledge and understanding of physical phenomena, the theories, laws and models that govern them, including their domain of application and their formulation in mathematical language.
(Application): Knowing how to use basic mathematical, analytical and numerical methods for the description of the physical world, including especially the elaboration of theories and models and the proposal of experimental measures.
(Analysis): Understanding the role played by the scientific method in the discussion of theories and models, and the capacity to propose and perform a specific experiment, and to analyse the results obtained thereby with the required precision.
(Communication): Knowing how to present in the appropriate way, in Spanish and, when necessary, in English, the study carried out on a problem of physics, starting from the description of the model employed and including the mathematical, numerical and instrumental details, and the relevant references to other studies.
(Learning): Knowing how to access the information required to approach a task or study using the appropriate sources, including scientific and technical literature in English, and other online resources. Knowing how to plan and document this task in the appropriate manner.
(Tools): Command of the use of computation techniques required for the application of models. Knowledge of the principles and measurement techniques and the most important instruments in the different fields of Physics, and knowing how to apply them in the design and execution of a complete instrumental set-up in the laboratory.
(Initiative): Capacity of students for individual work, showing their own initiative and the ability to organise themselves to meet deadlines. Learning how to work in teams, contributing constructively and assuming responsibilities and leadership.
(Execution): Knowing how to approach the performance of scientific and technical projects: planning, selection of resources, execution, analysis of results, presentation and discussion of the findings.
(Ethics): Analysis of potential ethical problems and those with social impact related to professional activity in Physics and in particular the responsibility in the protection of public health and of the environment.
(Vision): Capacity of students to participate in interdisciplinary initiatives, providing a viewpoint, and the knowledge and techniques characteristic of Physics. Knowing the historical development of theories and concepts in Physics and their relationship with current frontier topics in Physics. Capacity to transmit an interest in Physics through an attractive presentation of the advances achieved in this field, and of their impact on other areas of research and development.
