Presentation
Physics is of particular importance in a degree that intends to offer a wide range of training in the Sciences. The training in Physics that students take from compulsory schooling is, in general, at a common sense level, with atomized knowledge. Thus, it becomes necessary to encourage a meaningful learning of this subject that allows the student an integrated knowledge of Physics, capable of supporting the specific learning of this degree.

Objectives
Objectives
The main objective of this course is to establish a conceptual network of Classical Physics that allows an integrated knowledge of the different contents addressed, as well as the possibility of building, from it, new knowledge in the specific areas of the course. Thus, it is intended that students start by memorizing some basic concepts, trying to interpret them in order to give them meaning. These concepts are those associated with classical mechanics, such as velocity, acceleration, force and energy. From this base, we seek to build knowledge in the areas of Fluid Mechanics, Thermodynamics and Electromagnetism, thus establishing a network of interconnected concepts of Classical Physics. It is also intended that students are able to apply the acquired knowledge in solving problems related to Biology and the Environment, in the sense of Sustainability.

Teaching methodologies and assessment
Teaching methodologies and assessment
In theoretical classes, content is exposed, with the active participation of students, seeking to create bridges between new and previous concepts. Problem situations are presented for which students are invited to analyze the concepts involved. In theoretical-practical classes, students analyze and solve problems involving concepts presented in classes. Students are encouraged to experiment with various problem solving strategies in the field of Biology.
