PHYS 115: Apples and Anti-Apples: Physics for the Non-Scientist
3.00 Credits
Washington and Lee University
A conceptual overview of the fundamental ideas of modern physics. This non-laboratory course presents the essential concepts and philosophical and ethical aspects of the most important developments in modern physics, such as quantum mechanics, relativity, particle physics and statistical physics. Discusses the impact of these concepts on our continuous efforts to understand the universe. Algebra and geometry are used, but no calculus. I. Mazilu.

PHYS 120: Dreams of a Final Theory: The Quest for Unification in Physics
4.00 Credits
Washington and Lee University
This course presents the quest for unification in physics from a scientific, historical, and philosophical perspective. The course introduces students to the evolution of physical theories from the ancient Greek philosophers to the modern concepts of Einstein’s special and general theory of relativity, black holes, the standard model in particle physics, as well as the controversial string theory.

PHYS 133: Introduction to Radio Astronomy
4.00 Credits
Washington and Lee University
This course provides a unique opportunity for each student to both learn the principles of radio astronomy and to become fully engaged in the design, construction, and use of a small radio telescope. This project-based course involves students collaboratively in basic electronic circuitry, celestial coordinates, and the acquisition of radio-telescope data. Each student group designs, builds, and acquires data from a small radio telescope to be used on campus. Formal lectures are supplemented by various laboratory experiences. Students write journals and group reports, and become involved in peer-reviewed group presentations. Laboratory course. Boller.

PHYS 150: The Immense Journey: Harmonices Mundi
4.00 Credits
Washington and Lee University
Prerequisite: Permission of the instructor. The classical astronomy of the solar system is traced by a study of Greek astronomy and the revolutionary ideas of Kepler and Newton. The apparent and real motions of the earth, moon, and planets are studied in detail, as well as special phenomena such as eclipses, tides, and objects such as comets and asteroids. Emphasis is on comprehension and application of principles rather than memorization of facts. The laboratory stresses the observational aspects of astronomy. Elementary geometry, algebra, and trigonometry are used in the course. Laboratory course. Boller.
