3.00 Credits
3 credits This course examines physical, geological, and astronomical processes involved in shaping the Earth and other planets. The geological processes acting on the Earth, and the Earth's natural history of the Earth will be studied first, and then used to examine the other bodies of the solar system, studying how the physical characteristics of the planets influence and are influenced by the same basic processes operating in different ways. Topics will include: the properties of Earth materials, the evolution of the Earth and geological structures, matter and energy in the Earth system, the Earth in the solar system and the universe, fundamental issues of planetary science, and fundamentals of observational astronomy and objects in the sky (Moon phases, properties of orbits, etc.). Mathematics competency required. Offered every spring.

3 credits This course is an exploration of the fundamental physical concepts relating to sound (vibrations and waves, overtones, Fourier synthesis and analysis) and its perception (physiology, physics, and psychophysics of hearing) and measurement (transducers and the decibel scale); sound recording and reproduction (analog and digital); musical acoustics (temperament and pitch; families of musical instruments; speech and the human vocal tract); and the acoustics of enclosures. Mathematics competency required. Offered in alternate fall semesters.

3.00 Credits
3 credits This course is intended for elementary education majors as well as other non-science majors. It examines the conceptual frameworks that underlie physics, including mechanics, heat, sound, electricity and magnetism, and light. Two 50 minutes classes and one 2-hour lab per week. Mathematics competency required. Offered every spring and in alternative fall semesters.
