Course Descriptions

More details about each class offering...

Elementary Physics
 PHYS 1410

  • A conceptual level survey of topics in physics intended for liberal arts and other non-science majors.
  • This course offers the opportunities for the students to explore the basic principles in motion, matter, heat, sound, electricity, light, and modern physics.
  • It includes an appropriate laboratory program.

College Physics 1
PHYS 1401

  • The fundamental principles of physics, using algebra and trigonometry;
  • The principles and applications of classical mechanics and thermodynamics, including: harmonic motion, mechanical waves and sound, physical systems, Newton's laws of motion, and gravitation and other fundamental forces; with emphasis on problem solving.
  • Laboratory activities will reinforce fundamental principles of physics.
  • This course can serve as the physics requirement for the pre-professional medical programs but does not satisfy the physics requirements for physical science and engineering majors.

College Physics 2
PHYS 1402

  • The fundamental principles of physics, using algebra and trigonometry;
  • The principles and applications of electricity and magnetism, including circuits, electrostatics, electromagnetism, waves, sound, light, optics, and modern physics topics; with emphasis on problem solving.
  • Laboratory activities will reinforce fundamental principles of physics.
  • This course can serve as the physics requirement for the pre-professional medical programs but does not satisfy the physics requirements for physical science and engineering majors.
