Course Objectives: One of the main purpose of this course is to teach the students how to apply law of Modern Physics to experiment. In this course students will improve their knowladge on  both modern and quantum physics practicing several original experiments. This course also serves additional chance to students to test their theoretical knowledge on a real life.
