PHYSICS
The physics program provides the necessary co-requisites for chemistry and biology majors, as well as for students who desire to enrich their programs with study in one of these courses.
| 101 Introduction to Physical Science | This course provides an introductory survey of the physical sciences with particular
emphasis upon topics selected from physics and chemistry. The history of and
methods used in science will be studied. Designed to fulfill the physical science general
education requirement for non-science majors. This class includes a laboratory component. Credit Hours: 3
|
| 121 General Physics | This course is an introduction to the basic laws and theories of the following main
areas of classical physics: mechanics, heat, and thermodynamics. This class includes a
laboratory component. Credit Hours: 4
|
| 122 General Physics | A continuation of Physics 121, introducing the basic laws and theories of wave
motion, electricity and magnetism, optics, and modern physics. This class includes a
laboratory component. Prerequisites: PHYS 121. Credit Hours: 4
|
| 211 Calculus-Based General Physics | This course is a calculus-based introduction to the basic laws and theories of the
following main areas of classical physics: mechanics, heat, and thermodynamics. This
class includes a laboratory component. Prerequisites: MATH 111, or concurrent enrollment. Credit Hours: 4
|
| 212 Calculus-Based General Physics | A continuation of Physics 211, this course is a calculus-based introduction to the basic
laws and theories of wave motion, electricity and magnetism, optics, and modern
physics. This class includes a laboratory component. Prerequisites: PHYS 211. Credit Hours: 4
