16 courses with the subject PHYS, 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.
4 SH Introduces the concepts of physics found in music and other arts to a broad audience through classroom engagement and laboratory activities. Topics covered include acoustics, musical instruments, light, color, and optics.
S (4 SH) Introduces the concepts of physics found in music and other arts to a broad audience through classroom engagement and laboratory activities. Topics covered include acoustics, musical instruments, light, color, and optics.

Statics F odd (4 SH) This course studies the mechanics of static structures. Topics covered in this course include vector force systems, systems in equilibrium, structural analysis of trusses and frames, friction, distributed forces, center of gravity, and moment of inertia. Technical drawing and designs skills will be used to build a bridge structure out of balsa wood and test the strength of this structure during lab time. Prerequisite: PHYS 303.
S even (4 SH) The study of electrical engineering through the analysis of analog and digital circuits and the study of DC and AC electronic systems. Topics covered in this course include Kirchhoff’s laws, circuit analysis, resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes, transistors, amplifiers, DC and AC power supplies and signal processing. These circuits and systems will be build and studied during lab. Prerequisites: PHYS 304, MATH 400.
PHYS 213 & 214 Calculus-Based General Physics I & 2 OR PHYS 201N & 202 General Physics I & 2 Plus additional courses in Mathematics at 400 level or above to reach 58 SH minimum. Choose one of the following two-course sequences: CHEM 211N General Chemistry I and CHEM 212 General Chemistry II
