3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: PHY 111 or 113, 112 or 114, 213, 234 This course is designed for those with an interest in teaching physics or physical science at the secondary school level. It emphasizes the use of varied teaching strategies and methods to cater to different learning styles of students. Attention is given to analytic and graphic as well as intuitive presentation of physics concepts and phenomena. Teaching techniques including audio-visual aids, demonstration and hand-on experiments are used to enhance the learning experience. Cross-listed as PHY 530
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: PHY 213 The laws of thermodynamics and their interpretation based on the microscopic behavior. Entropy and probability, equilibrium, reversibility, thermodynamic functions, phase changes, and quantum statistics are studied. Applications to problems in solid state physics are examined.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: PHY 213; Pre- or corequisite: PHY 341; or permission of instructor. Basic concepts of condensed matter physics, crystal structure, crystal diffraction, lattice vibrations, theory of metals, semiconductors and insulators, magnetic properties of solids.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: Permission of department Individual work under the supervision of a faculty member on an experimental, theoretical, or literature review project in physics. This work may lead to a senior thesis project or may be concluded by a written report at the end of the term.
-
3.00 Credits
Intensive individual work on an experimental or theoretical problem in physics under the guidance of a faculty member. The special project is to be selected at the beginning of the senior year. Credit will be assigned in the second semester.
-
3.00 Credits
Conditions and hours to be arranged Prerequisites: Upper-division standing; permission of instructor, department chairperson, and college dean Individual study of selected topics in physics under the guidance of a faculty advisor.

3.00 Credits
Conditions and hours to be arranged Prerequisites: Permission of the instructor, department chairperson, and college dean Study under the supervision of a faculty member in an area covered in a regular course not currently being offered.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: Variable, depending on topic An advanced treatment of a special topic in physics with an emphasis on recent developments. The subject matter varies according tho the interests of the instructor and the students.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: PHY 315 and MNE 332 or equivalent; or exposure to PDEs or undergraduate fluid mechanics Tools and the physical concepts needed to understand the physics of ocean boundary layers. This course considers tensor analysis, motion relative to a point, Bousinessq approximation, vorticity dynamics in geophysical fluid flows and the physical processes pertaining to oceanic boundary layers, surface gravity waves, and oceanic turbulence. Also discussed is surface energy exchange at the ocean-atmosphere interface.
