Course # | Course Name | Credit(s) |
---|---|---|
PHYS 1022 | Descriptive Astronomy | 3 |
Surveys the major areas of astronomy including planets, the Sun, the Moon, stars, galaxies, cosmology, and the possibility of extraterrestrial life. Course includes lab-like learning activities. Note that this course by itself will not meet the lab science requirement. Students are encouraged to register for PHYS 1023 - Descriptive Astronomy Lab to fulfill a lab science requirement. |
||
PHYS 1023 | Descriptive Astronomy Lab | 1 |
Explores astronomy concepts using simulations and observations. This is an optional lab course that students can take to enhance their understanding of concepts presented in PHYS 1022 - Descriptive Astronomy. This lab will meet the lab science requirement. |
||
PHYS 1030 | Descriptive Physics | 4 |
Explores topics in motion, heat, sound, electricity, magnetism, light, and nuclear physics. PHYS1030 emphasizes concepts, basic laws, and applications of physics. For students with no physics background who do not plan to concentrate their study in science. PHYS 1030 assumes only a basic understanding of math. Prerequisites: MATH 0640 or placement into MATH 0820 or higher. |
||
PHYS 1041 | Algebra & Trig Based Physics I | 4 |
Explores topics in motion, mechanics, fluids, and oscillations. This course relies on algebra and trigonometry to explain these physics concepts and solve problems related to them. Prerequisites: Courses in trigonometry and higher algebra or concurrent enrollment in MATH 1119. |
||
PHYS 1081 | Calculus Based Physics I | 5 |
Explores motion, mechanics, fluids, oscillations, thermodynamics and heat. Physics 1081 is the first part of a two-semester sequence. Prerequisite: MATH 1133 or concurrent enrollment. |
||
PHYS 1082 | Calculus Based Physics II | 5 |
Explores topics in electricity and magnetism, light and optics. This course is a continuation of Physics 1081. Prerequisites: PHYS 1081 and MATH 1133. |
||
PHYS 1185 | Elements of Descriptive Physics | 3 |
