Level 2 - putting it all together

Level 2 labs are about expanding on skills learnt in Discovery Skills with an emphasis on data analysis. This year is about expanding on skills learnt in Level 1 with an emphasis on data analysis. Through longer, more open-ended experiments, you will learn skills such as:

  • Planning activities over multiple sessions and recording what you did.
  • Use of common electronics and signal manipulation.
  • Automating data collection.
  • Using cryogens safely.
  • Further numerical techniques and modelling in Python.
  • Presenting your work in a variety of ways.

You will also undertake a longer Research-led investigation on one topic to bring all these skills together.

This module is assessed through a combination of lab reports, presentations, practical assessments and computing problems.
