<br>一、課程說明(Course Description)
<br>
<br>Statistical thermodynamics is a course in which we study macroscopic systems from microscopic point of view. The goal of statistical thermodynamics is to understand macroscopic phenomena and to predict macroscopic properties from the individual molecules making up the system. In this course, I will introduce the concept of statistical physics to students and make the connection of the statistical physics with the thermodynamics.
