1.1 providing students with basic knowledge and practical skills in methods for calculating radiation protection for medical installations and other equipment that uses ionizing radiation sources. 2.1 master methods for calculating radiation protection for medical installations and other equipment that uses ionizing radiation sources

Full-time form

Successful mastering of basic physics courses, special courses in medical physics, interaction of ionizing radiation with matter and its registration

The course " Calculations of radiation shielding " will significantly improve the training of students majoring in "nuclear energy", which is due to the fact that students will learn to use: • information obtained during the study of courses in dosimetry, radiation protection and the use of Monte Carlo methods, courses in medical physics • use formulas and patterns of ionizing radiation passing through the substance, • estimate the errors of experimental data and calculations. • Work independently with literature

Lecture demonstration; laboratory work, independent work; consultations

The discipline "Calculations of radiation shielding" 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 + 30 = 40 points). 2. Survey during lectures (maximum - 10 points). 3. Evaluation of homework (maximum - 20 points). - final assessment in the form of a test (maximum -30 points)
