Foundation Physics*

FFP001

Foundation Physics lays the fundamental base for engineering and the physical sciences with topics that cover classical mechanics, oscillations and waves, fluids, electricity, and thermal physics. The subject explores these concepts in the context of current technology and engineering. It equips the student with general knowledge, mathematical concepts, and skills in physics. Practical applications are also explored, extending the student’s problem-solving capabilities to the physical world. Through the tutorials, students are introduced to data analysis methods, experimental and measurement techniques used in engineering. The aim is to develop core physical skills needed for real-world problem-solving. 

*Please note that Foundation Physics is a compulsory Semester 1 subject for students studying Engineering.
