The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning objectives
The course is organised in three modules: Applied Physics, Statistics, Electrical and Electronic Measurements
TO KNOW AND REMEMBER
- the basics of physical phenomena such as mechanical oscillations and waves, simple harmonic motion, forced oscillations and resonance, waves on a string and the superposition principle for waves
- sound waves, wavelength and frequency, Fourier's theorem
- the energy and power of a sound wave, units of measurement and their correlations
- reflection and transmission of sound waves, interference, beats and diffraction
- the Doppler effect
UNDERSTAND AND KNOW
- the main laws underlying physical and electrical phenomena
- electrical energy, electric potential energy, electric current and intensity
- resistance and Ohm's law
- energy and power in electrical circuits, series and parallel resistances
- the principles of psychoacoustics and room acoustics
- the definition of population, cohort, sample
- the difference between categorical and continuous variables, prevalence and incidence, definitions of relative and absolute risk
- statistical errors and analyses to assess them
- statistical significance
- the main parametric and non-parametric tests for the variables under study
- graphical and expressive representation of statistical analysis
- basic use of the main computer programmes for statistical calculation
KNOWING AND KNOWING HOW TO APPLY
- the correct formulae for solving problems
- correct statistical analyses to detect prevalence, incidence, relative risk of a given clinical condition or risk factor
- the correct statistical analyses in order to detect statistically significant differences
Prerequisites and basic notions
There are no prerequisites

Learning assessment procedures
APPLIED PHYSICS: written examination as a highly structured test (quiz comprising multiple-choice tests), 60 minutes available, grade in thirtieths
STATISTICS: written examination as a semi-structured test (open questions requiring short answers, statistical exercises, multiple-choice quizzes), 60 minutes available, grade in thirtieths
ELECTRONIC AND ELECTRICAL MEASUREMENT: written examination as a low-structured test (open questions requiring short answers, exercises requiring the application of calculations), 60 minutes available, grade in thirtieths
Final grade: arithmetic average with oral examination, cum laude if 30/30 in all three examinations; each written examination may be taken as an in-progress test
Evaluation criteria
Ability to reason critically about the study undertaken; clear and precise exposition of topics, ability to synthesise, ability to problems solving by reasoning linearly and applying mathematical and statistical calculation methods precisely.
Criteria for the composition of the final grade
The final exam consists of three tests, one for each module. To pass the exam, a score of at least 18/30 is required in each test. The final grade (expressed in thirtieths) is the average of the scores obtained in the three tests.
