PHYS 1200: Physical Science II
3.00 Credits
Fitchburg State University
3 cr. 4 hr. This course is designed to help non-science students in developing a meaningful and functional understanding of key physical science concepts and methodology. Topics include motion, force, heat, energy and nature of matter. The course is taught with a combination of lectures, group discussions and learning-by-doing activities. The emphasis is to provide students with open-ended problem solving environments that facilitate insight into the nature of science as an intellectual activity, and to encourage students to explore alternate conceptions of physical phenomena.

PHYS 2000: Astronomy
3.00 Credits
Fitchburg State University
3 cr. 3 hr. After a brief introduction to the history of astronomy in Western civilization we discuss at an elementary level how light is produced and how telescopes work with light. In turn we then examine the solar system (comparative planetology) and the birth, evolution and death of stars and in the end consider the birth and death of the universe. Q, SMT
