Physics

  
  • PHY 201 - General Physics I -Trig Based


    4 Hours

    Prerequisite: A letter grade of C or higher in MTH 113  or higher math placement, RDG 085  and ENG 092  or higher placement
    This course is designed to cover general physics at a level that assumes previous exposure to college algebra and basic trigonometry. Specific topics include mechanics, properties of matter and energy, thermodynamics, and periodic motion. Laboratory is required.
  
  • PHY 202 - General Physics II-Trig Based


    4 Hours

    Prerequisite: A letter grade of C or higher in PHY 201 
    This course is designed to cover general physics using college algebra and basic trigonometry. Specific topics include wave motion, sound, light optics, electrostatics, circuits, magnetism, and modern physics. Laboratory is required.
  
  • PHY 213 - General Physics with Cal I


    4 Hours

    Prerequisite: A letter grade of C or higher in MTH 125 , RDG 085 , and ENG 092  or higher placement
    This course provides a calculus-based treatment of the principle subdivisions of classical physics: mechanics and energy, including thermodynamics. Laboratory is required.
  
  • PHY 214 - General Physics with Cal II


    4 Hours

    Prerequisite: A letter grade of C or higher in PHY 213 
    This course provides a calculus-based study in classical physics. Topics included are simple harmonic motion, waves, sound, light, optics, electricity, and magnetism. Laboratory is required.
