Medicine · Year 1 · MU Sofia
Physics
Physics at the Medical University of Sofia is a Year 1 subject in the Medicine degree, and its syllabus of 42 topics moves from mechanics, solids and fluids, through oscillations, sound and ultrasound, heat, and electricity and magnetism, to optics, atomic and molecular spectra with lasers, and finally radioactivity, X-rays and ionising radiation. Along the way it links physics to medicine, from blood pressure measurement and MRI to the eye, microscopes and radiation protection. AceMed has a note for every topic, about two hours of reading in all, built around 198 labelled pictures and formulas rather than tables, with 400 flashcards for revision.
The full MU Sofia syllabus for Physics, Medicine, Year 1: 42 topics, every one with a free study note (2 hours of reading), and 400 flashcards. Updated 29 October 2026.
