Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

0.1.1 Welcome to Pre-University Physics

Course subject(s) Module 0: Getting started: Pre-University Physics

Hey there,

We see that you have arrived – welcome! After years of (perhaps involuntary) learning, it is almost time to start a whole new chapter of your life: university. You will study something that you are personally interested in and you will create your own path. With such a big step it is only natural that you may feel nervous, uncertain, or possibly overwhelmed.

This course was developed to allow you to learn how we practice physics. This course will make you feel more confident about your physics knowledge and will give you extra insight that might come in handy during your time at university! Welcome to the Pre-University Physics course!

In the coming modules you will refresh your knowledge and learn everything about the most fundamental physics subjects. After this course you will feel more prepared for university!

In the video below the course team is presented.
After watching, you can read more about the course on the next pages.
