5.00 Credits
For students in college transfer programs, especially those interested in biological or medical sciences. The course goals are to develop an understanding of basic concepts of physics and analytical and problem-solving skills with applications to biological systems. The laboratory is an integral component of the course. The dynamics of oscillations, waves, electromagnetism, and light will be studied with biological and medical applications. No credit given to students who have completed PHYS& 123. PREREQUISITE: A grade of 2.0 or higher in PHYS& 121 or PHYS 150; and in either MATH 097, 116T or 1 1/2 years of high school algebra. Satisfies a natural science or lab science requirement for AA degree.
-
2.00 Credits
An Introduction to the quantitative laws of electricity and magnetism including principles of electromagnets, electric generators, and electromagnetic waves. PREREQUISITE: A grade of 2.0 or higher in PHYS& 222 and MATH& 152; and at least concurrent enrollment in MATH& 153. Satisfies a natural science requirement for AA degree,
-
5.00 Credits
Detailed study of the basic laws of physics. Emphasizes the evolution of ideas from experimental observation to mathematical models. A comprehensive investigation of Newtonian particle dynamics is completed. Laboratory is an integral part of the course. PREREQUISITE: A grade of 2.0 or higher in PHYS& 121 or in high school physics, or equivalent; and in MATH& 142 or equivalent with concurrent enrollment or completion of MATH& 151. Satisfies a natural science or lab science requirement for AA degree. Formerly PHYS 201.
-
5.00 Credits
Applications of Newtonian Physics to energy, momentum, and extended bodies as well as study of electro-magnetic theory. Ideas are developed from experimental observation to a mathematics model. Laboratory is an integral part of the course. PREREQUISITE: A grade of 2.0 or higher in PHYS& 221 and MATH& 151; and at least concurrent enrollment in MATH& 152. Satisfies a natural science or lab science requirement for AA degree. Formerly PHYS 202.
-
5.00 Credits
Study of classical wave properties with applications to mechanical and electrical systems, sound, electromagnetic waves, light, and atomic physics. PREREQUISITE: A grade of 2.0 or higher in PHYS& 222 and MATH& 152 and at least concurrent enrollment in MATH& 153. Satisfies a natural science or lab science requirement for AA degree. Formerly PHYS 203.
-
3.00 Credits
Fourth quarter of the general physics sequence for science and engineering students. This could serve as a terminal course for non-physics majors and also give the student a good conceptual background for the study of quantum mechanics. Emphasis is on a thorough study of phenomena that cannot be explained with ideas from classical physics. PREREQUISITE: A grade of 2.0 or higher in PHYS& 222 and MATH& 152; and at least concurrent enrollment in PHYS& 223 and MATH& 153. Satisfies a natural science requirement for AA degree. Formerly PHYS 221.
-
5.00 Credits
The student can contract with an instructor to complete a study of topics not part of regular class. Topics must be in physics or related fields. PREREQUISITE: One year of physics and instructor's permission.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to the field of political science. Includes brief treatments of political philosophy, historic development of political thought, use of political parties, major "isms" (communism, fascism, etc.) and basic concepts of international relations. For general studies and high school completion. Formerly P SCI 090.
-
2.00 Credits
Overview of the basic structures and processes of American national government. Prepares students for success in POLS& 202. This is a pass/no credit course. Formerly P SCI 099
-
5.00 Credits
An introduction to the discipline of political science and to politics itself. Students explore and analyze political philosophies, political ideologies, the historical development of political thought, democracy, authoritarianism, and the major "isms" (liberalism, conservatism, capitalism, socialism, communism, and fascism). Explores the kinds of governmental structures that are associated with each of the ideologies. Students will begin to assess how well each ideology has dealt with the social, economic, and political problems of the world, in the past and present. Students will further explore and analyze why and under what conditions people choose any ideology over others. Satisfies a social science requirement for AA degree. Formerly P SCI 100.
