Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

The aim of the subject is to gain basic knowledge about optical radiation, its propagation in various environments and at their interfaces, and its interaction with substances. We will focus our attention mainly on geometric optics, scalar wave optics, and electromagnetic optics. After completing the course the student will be able to apply the methods of university mathematics to problems in the field of description of optical phenomena, gain broad knowledge and overview of optical methods used in modern applications and will be theoretically acquainted with measurements of basic optical quantities and parameters.
