3.00 Credits
An introductory level interdisciplinary course covering nanotechnology and its use in medicine. Students will learn the basic physics behind smart nanobiomaterials, nanobiosensors, and DNA motifs. They will also learn nanotechnology in cancer treatment and drug delivery, medical imaging using quantum dots, nanofabrication, characterization tools used in nanotechnology, and nanotoxicology. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions..
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to develop skills in applying mathematical tools and concepts developed formally in the mathematics curriculum for use in the undergraduate physics curriculum. The focus will be on the practical problem solving process rather than the abstract or theoretical nature of techniques. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions..
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the concepts and methods of computer modeling of excitable cells. Topics include basic electrophysiology of excitable cells, biophysics of ion conduction, mathematical modeling of activation/inactivation mechanisms using experimental data, and computer simulations. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions..
Prerequisite:
( BIOL 111 AND BIOL 112 AND PHYS 112 ) OR ( BIOL 211 AND BIOL 212 AND PHYS 102 OR PHYS 112 )
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
An examination of an area in physics in which a regular course is not offered. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions..
-
3.00 Credits
Newtonian dynamics of particles and rigid bodies, relativistic mechanics, Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics and waves. Lectures three hours per week. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions..

Prerequisite:
PHYS 301
-
3.00 Credits
Course examines how businesses in weather-dependent sectors (Insurance, Utilities, Oil/Gas, Agribusiness, Environmental, Shipping, Aviation, Tourism, Construction, Stock Options, Weather Derivatives, Law, Weather Modification/Mitigation, National Defense, Event Planning, etc.) utilize climatological and forecast data to manage risk, people, and logistics. Consumer-driven businesses (retail, restaurants, theaters, etc.) must manage behavior response to weather conditions. Businesses dedicated to weather (forecasting, broadcasting, mitigation, etc.) combine knowledge of business practices and meteorology. Managing climate change will also be addressed. Students learn how to obtain climate/forecast data, assess meteorological impacts to various businesses, and understand the rapid decisions required to manage changing weather. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions.
