9 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 100Physical Science in Modern Society (formerly Conceptual Physics)3
(LEC 48-54) This course provides a conceptual introduction to the basic physics and chemistry in the Modern World. Effects of technology on individuals and human society. Examines natural phenomena and human-directed technology encountered in daily life from a physical science perspective.
