This course`s main goal is to provide students with working understanding on how human body functions
and the ability to use this knowledge in everyday health-related situations. The course focuses on humananatomy and physiology, but also on how organ systems’ organization has changed throughout animals’
evolution. Short introduction is given on plant morphology and physiology, as well as on basic concepts ofecology. The overview of plants and interactions of ecological systems will allow students to criticallyevaluate agricultural and ecological issues.
●Prerequisite Subjects
There is no prerequisite knowledge for this course, so even those who didn’t take Fundamentals of Biology
1, or didn’t study Biology in high school, are welcome to join and learn how human body works.

This system will not be integrated into thecourse assessment methods. The choice of using it will be left to each individual student.
●Additional Reading●Grade Assessment
Evaluation will be based on in-class participation (total of 20% of the final grade) and two exams (total of
80% for both). Attendance will not be marked.In-class participation will consist of active participation in
discussions and quality of presentations and in-group assignments. There will be no periodic home works or
quizzes; instead students are expected to read the appropriate chapter before class, as classes will include
problem-solving questions and discussions. Exams will emphasize on analytical and problem-solving
questions.

5th period
This course is a companion course to Mathematical Physics II. This course introduces first order and second
order ordinary differential equations and their solution methods. Students master analytical techniques forproblems that arise in physics, engineering and chemistry. Questions of uniqueness of solutions andconvergence are also discussed. Students are also introduced to Fourier series, the Fourier transform,
convolution, Laplace transform, and the Dirac delta function. Students will find this mathematical methods
course helpful in other units such as Quantum Mechanics, Analytical Mechanics, Electricity and Magnetism,as well as in Automotive Engineering and other engineering courses.
This course has dual aims: 1) to convey mathematical principles; 2) to improve students’ technical ability– i.e. ability to express intuition in mathematical terms and ability to solve problems.
4th period
Students taking Mathematical Physics I should also take this tutorial class. This course introduces first orderand second order ordinary differential equations and their solution methods. Students master exact andapproximate analytical techniques for initial value problems that arise in physics, engineering and chemistry.
Questions of existence, uniqueness and convergence are also discussed. Fourier series follow naturally fromthe 2nd order theory and these are investigated, too.

Never before have humans had such a profound impact on the Earth. The world population exceeds 7 billion
and is growing steadily. Industrial and technological needs for energy and mineral resources are increasing
every year. In this course, we will see how humanity is changing the environment. In particular we will
explore climate change in the geological past and the relationships between human activities and climate
today. The students will also learn about the nature and usefulness of geological resources and theenvironmental threats posed by petroleum and mineral industries. Finally, we will reflect on theopportunities and challenges for a sustainable use of geological resources.
