16 courses with the subject PHY, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
PHY 103Technical Physics for Health Careers
For students pursuing careers in health technologies. Includes application of principles of equilibrium to the human muscular system; study of work, energy, temperature, heat, and properties of fluids; electricity and magnetism and their relation to medical equipment; properties of sound and light waves.
