4.00 Credits
Feldman Primarily for non-science majors. Physical principles are introduced through a study of everyday objects to see what makes them tick. This unconventional approach is primarily conceptual in nature and intended for students seeking a connection between science and the world in which they live. Prerequisite: high school algebra and trigonometry. Laboratory fee. (Spring)
-
4.00 Credits
Berman Primarily for non-science majors. A comparative study of music and physics, showing parallels in the history of the two fields and emphasizing those topics in physics related to the theory of music and the production of sound by musical instruments, particularly classical mechanics and wave motion. Prerequisite: high school algebra and geometry. Laboratory fee. (Fall)
-
4.00 Credits
Staff Primarily for non-science majors. The evolution of ideas and their historical continuity in the search for basic physical theories. By presenting the world-views of great physicists of the past, the division of physics into many subdisciplines is avoided and a humanistic approach is achieved. Prerequisite: high school algebra. Laboratory fee.
-
3.00 Credits
Sodaro, Dickson,Morgan, Teitelbaum Concepts and principles of comparative analysis, with an examination of politics and government in selected countries.
-
3.00 Credits
Lebovic, Wahlbeck, Wiley, Voeten, Lawrence Nature of political inquiry, approaches to the study of politics and government, empirical methods of research. Laboratory fee.
