Upon completing the course, students learn the following skills. They are able to
- understand and explain basic concepts and calculation methods of Newtonian, Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of mechanics (k1/k2);
- formulate and interpret theoretical concepts of mechanics in a precise and analytical way (k3);
- transfer the theoretical concepts of mechanics to specific physical systems (k3/k4).

During the course, students acquire knowledge in the following areas and concepts of mechanics:
- basic concepts of mechanics (physics), Newton's axioms, conservation variables;
- systems of mass points, rigid bodies, accelerated reference systems, restrictions of motion;
- D'Alembert's principle, Lagrange equations, small oscillations;
- motion in the central field, planetary motion;
- scattering of particles;
- Hamilton's principle, Hamilton's equations of motion, Hamilton-Jacobi theory;
- transition to quantum mechanics.
