3.00 Credits
(3 sem. hrs.) Designed for students who need some knowledge in this field but do not wish to take a full-year course in general physics. Some of the most important physical principles and their applications are studied with emphasis on experimental facts upon which these principles are based and on use of the scientific method of deriving them. (Cannot be included in major.) Students electing this course to meet their General Education requirement for laboratory science must take both PHY100 and PHY100L in the same semester. (Spring only)
-
1.00 Credits
(1 sem. hrs.) This course is the laboratory compliment to PHY100, Introduction to Physical Principles. The weekly exercise allow students to more fully explore some of the concepts discussed in the lecture. The laboratory must be taken concurrently with PHY100. (Cannot be included in the Physics major) (Spring only) PREREQUISITES: Must be taken concurrently with PHY100
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
(4 sem. hrs.) A year long sequence that covers the principles and methods of physics with applications to mechanics, heat, sound, electricity, magnetism, light, and optics and modern physics. This class meets three recitation hours and one 2 hour laboratory period per week. Laboratory must be taken with the lecture. Recommended for Biology and related majors. PREREQUISITES: Two years of high school mathematics including algebra It is strongly recommended that these prerequisites be met no earlier than 2 years prior to enrolling in this class. (Every year)

3.00 Credits
(3 sem. hrs.) Provides an introduction to digital photography with an emphasis on the technical aspects of the digital camera. Editing of digital photopraphs will be done using Adobe Photoshop which will be learned through self-tutorial. Weekly critiques of student work and sample work of various famous photographers will be included. A lab fee will be charged. The class is open to all students. A digital camera is required. This course does not fulfill the Natural Science General Education Requirement and cannot be applied toward any major or minor offered in the Physics department unless otherwise noted. This course does fulfill the Arts General Education Requirement.
-
3.00 Credits
(3 sem. hrs.) The main areas covered are the solar system, stars, galaxies, cosmology, and possibility of extraterrestrial life. The amount of emphasis placed on each area may vary according to the individual instructor's interest. (May not be included in physics major). (Fall and Spring)
-
4.00 Credits
(4 sem. hrs.) Analysis of modern electronics including AC and DC circuits, semi-conductor devices, and analog circuits. This class covers diode, transistor, and operational amplifier circuits. Applications include power supplies, amplifying circuits, low-pass filters, and high-pass filters. (Offered on demand) PREREQUISITES: C- or better in PHY102.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
(4 sem. hrs.) Year long sequence that covers the theory of relativity, particle aspects of radiation, quantum theory and its application to atoms and nuclei. This class meets three hours of recitation and 2 hours of lab per week. (Offered on demand) PREREQUISITES: C- or higher in PHY102 and at least concurrent enrollment in MTH307
