Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
Know the physical and mathematical disciplines at the level corresponding to the qualification "Bachelor of Physics". To master the discipline requires knowledge of physics, including mechanics, electrodynamics, optics, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics and statistical physics, principles and methods of programming in mathematical packages. Be able to apply previous knowledge of mathematical analysis, mathematical physics, basics of vector and tensor analysis, theory of differential equations and theoretical physics in mathematical modeling of physical phenomena; formulate problems of mathematical modeling of physical phenomena. Have the skills of mathematical transformations, formulation and solution of physical problems at a level corresponding to the qualification "Bachelor of Physics"; search for the necessary background information in directories of physical quantities and the Internet; construction of mathematical models in the field of professional activity.
Course content
The normative discipline "Programming in COMSOL Multiphysics and FlexPDE" is a component of the cycle of professional training of specialists of the educational qualification level "Master of Physics" and is necessary for the study of other physical disciplines. The course is designed to promote the development of students' ability to solve complex specialized problems related to research and development in the fields of natural sciences (physics, astronomy, mathematics, mechanics, computer science, etc.) using modern theories, computational methods, methods of research projects and processes using a set of interdisciplinary data and in conditions of lack of information.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Lectures - 30 hours, practical classes - 30 hours, independent work - 120 hours, consultations.
Assessment methods and criteria
The control is carried out according to the module-rating system, which consists of 2 content modules. The knowledge assessment system includes current, modular and semester control of knowledge. The results of students' learning activities are evaluated on a 100-point scale. Forms of current control: assessment of homework, written independent assignments, tests and tests performed by students during practical classes. The student can receive a maximum of 20 points for homework, independent assignments, oral answers, tests, essays, reports, additions to practical classes. Modular control includes 2 modular control works. The student can receive a maximum of 20 points for modular tests (10 points for each modular test). The final semester control is conducted in the form of an exam in the second semester (60 points). The exam ticket includes 1 theoretical question (10 points) and 2 tasks (25 points each).
