G1: To acquire an understanding of the nature of research in physics, the ways in which it is conducted and how research in physics is applicable to many fields other than physics and technology.
G2: Being able to compare new experimental data with existing or developed complex theoretical models to review their validity and suggest changes to improve the fit of the models with the data.
G3: Being able to develop scientific instrumentation and/or one’s own mathematical models.
G4: Being able to make the required approximations in order to reduce a problem to a manageable level.
