Descriptif
This one week course has been designed for students starting energy related programs. Depending on your background and your topics of interest, it will be a refresher of undergrad physics, a crash course of concepts required notably for solar photovoltaics, and/or a cultural introduction to major concepts of modern physics. You will acquire a basic understanding of key notions, and will have some a reference to go back to if you need a deeper understanding during the semester.
