-
4.00 Credits
Study of propositional calculus and monadic and polyadic quantification, with some focus on propositional calculus as an axiomatic system. Offered infrequently.
-
3.00 Credits
General physics course recommended for students of the life sciences. (171) Classical mechanics and quantum physics. (172) Thermal physics, electromagnetism, and relativity. Minimum mathematical preparation requires students to have had courses that include trigonometry. MTH 151, 153, or equivalent are strongly encouraged. Prerequisite: (172) PHY 171. Corequisite: PHY 183, 184.
-
1.00 Credits
An optional demonstration/ experiment/ modeling course designed to provide enrichment for students enrolled in PHY 181.F or 182.F.
-
4.00 Credits
For education majors. Examines key principles of chemistry and physics by means of integrated lecture and laboratory. Hands-on toy-based investigations that are appropriate for use in the elementary and middle school classroom are used to develop concept understanding. Areas of investigation are pure substances, mixtures, states of matter, chemical reactions, motion, energy, electricity, magnetism, sound, and light. Prerequisite: EDT 181 or permission of instructor. Cross-listed with CHM 205. Offered only on regional campuses.
-
3.00 Credits
For middle and adolescent level education majors seeking licensure in science. Emphasizes scientific inquiry in an activity-based, cooperative-learning approach. Goals are to develop basic physical concepts and the scientific reasoning skills necessary to apply them to the natural world and to serve as a model for the transfer of the methods of inquiry-based instruction and authentic assessment to the precollege classroom. Topics selected from properties of matter, thermodynamics, electricity, optics, kinematics, and astronomy. Assessments include laboratory notebook and journal writing, discussion, and developing and teaching inquiry lessons. Prerequisite: one year of physical science or permission of instructor.
-
4.00 Credits
Discusses mathematical methods applicable to classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, and electromagnetism. Develops problem-solving skills by applying material from introductory math and physics classes along with new mathematical techniques. Allows for modeling of systems at a deeper level. Emphasizes the use of mathematics to model physical systems and methods of solutions to the differential equations of physics. Prerequisite: PHY 291; MTH 222, 252.
-
3.00 Credits
Weekly physics colloquium series presenting guest speakers on topics of interest to scientific community. Required of all graduate students in residence. Prerequisite: PHY 182 or equivalent or permission of faculty in charge. Offered for credit/no-credit only.
-
3.00 Credits
Directed study in selected topics in physics. Includes reading, research, writing, reporting, and discussion. Offered infrequently.
-
3.00 Credits
Techniques of nuclear physics, solid state physics, and optics. Prerequisite: PHY 291, 292. Offered infrequently.
-
4.00 Credits
Designed to acquaint the advanced undergraduate and graduate science major with physical principles required for an understanding of modern quantitative biology. Covers both experimental and theoretical aspects of physical biology. Prerequisite: PHY 172 or 182, MTH 249 or 251, or permission of instructor.
