-
3.00 Credits
Second semester of the two-semester algebra-based introductory physics course sequence primarily for non-science majors. This course is similar to PH 212 in pace and content but with less emphasis on mathematical technique. Topics to be covered are fundamentals of electrostatics, simple electrical circuits, magnetism, electromagnetism, electromagnetic oscillations and waves, physical optics, and basic concepts and applications of special relativity and quantum physics.
-
3.00 Credits
Individual programs of study and research under the direction of physics faculty members.
-
1.00 Credits
A laboratory course that provides an opportunity to perform experiments on topics in mechanics and acoustics. One two-hour laboratory period per week. This lab is intended for students in PH 209-210 or PH 211-212.

1.00 Credits
A laboratory course that provides an opportunity to perform experiments on topics in electricity and magnetism and physical optics. One two-hour laboratory period per week. This lab is intended for students in PH 209-210 or PH 211-212.
-
4.00 Credits
First semester of a two-semester calculus-based introduction to physics for those majoring in the physical sciences. Students utilize analytical reasoning combined with mathematical formalism to fully explore the development, consequences and limitations of the classical principles of physics; similar to PH 211 in pace and content but at a greater depth appropriate for physical science majors. Class size is limited to promote classroom discussion. Topics cover classical mechanics, including Newton's laws, energy, rotational motion, oscillations, waves, and gravitation.

4.00 Credits
First semester of a two-semester calculus-based introduction to physics primarily for biology majors and premedical students. The development and application of classical physical principles are covered, and students are introduced to more advanced mathematical techniques to extend these applications. Emphasis is placed on problem-solving to better understand the implications of these principles, as well as to develop analytical skills. Topics include classical mechanics, including Newton's laws, energy, rotational motion, hydrostatics and fluid dynamics, oscillations, waves, and gravitation.
