Course content
The course "Neutron Physics and Dosimetry" will significantly improve the training of students of the Department of Nuclear Physics, which is due to the fact that students:
• Master the basic physical laws and laws of neutron physics and basic knowledge of dosimetry of ionizing radiation of various types.
• Develop skills of practical use of the acquired knowledge, methods and approaches in the further mastering of courses in the specialty of nuclear physics.

Assessment methods and criteria
The discipline "Neutron Physics and Dosimetry" is evaluated by a modular rating system. It consists of 2 modules. The results of students' educational activity are evaluated on a 100 - point scale.
semester assessment:
1. two modular tests (maximum - 10 + 20 = 30 points).
2. Polls and tests during lectures (maximum - 10 points).
3. Evaluation of laboratory work (maximum - 30 points).
- final assessment in the form of a test (maximum -30 points)
