Course Objectives: 
The aim of the course is to give students the dicipline of making connections between their basic physics knowledge and the technical relationships with evaluation, as well as developing themselves and achieving the needs for becoming an industrial designer. In this context, it is intended to highlight the relations between both the design to product and product to design processes in terms of physics.
Course Content: 

To highlight basical physical and physicochemical concepts, to deal with the factors like mechanical properties / behaviour, movement, vibrations, acoustics, optics (light), heat and temperature, magnetics and electricity by making relations with tecnical and tecnological properties and industrial products.

Course Methodology: 
1: Lecture, 2: Question and Answer, 3: Discussion
Course Evaluation Methods: 
A: Testing, C: Homework
