4 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.
PHYS 3311Physics I (calculus) : A calculus-based introduction to the classical theories of electricity3.0
magnetism, and optics. The course utilizes traditional laboratory, microcomputer-based laboratory, and problem- based discussions in class meetings to facilitate constructivist learning of the students. Prerequisite: C or better in MATH 1160 or MAT 160. Corequisite PHYS 3312. Previously SPY 315
PHYS 3312Physics I Laboratory (calculus) : is the hands-on laboratory component of part one of1.0
the physics courses. This one semester course is designed to allow students to take measurements of various physical quantities and experience validation of the theories of mechanics, fluid, heat, oscillations, sound, and thermodynamics. The mathematical techniques that will be used in this course are of advanced mathematics. This course will also utilize excel and TI scientific calculator for statistical error analysis. Prerequisite: C or better in MATH 1160 or MAT 160; corequisite PHYS 3311. Previously SPY 315
PHYS 3317Physics II (calculus) : A calculus-based introduction to the classical theories of3.0
electricity, magnetism, and optics. The course utilizes traditional laboratory, microcomputer-based laboratory, and problem-based discussions in class meetings to facilitate problem solving and constructivist learning of the students. Prerequisite: C or better in PHYS 3311 or SPY 315; corequisite PHYS 3318. Previously SPY 316
PHYS 3318Physics II (calculus) : This is the laboratory component of part two of the calculus-based1.0
physics courses. This one-semester course is designed to allow students to take measurements of various physical quantities and experience validation of the theories of Electricity and Magnetism, Geometric and Wave Optics, and Modern Physics. The mathematical techniques that will be used in this course are of advanced concepts in calculus. Students will utilize excel and TI scientific calculator for statistical error analysis. Prerequisites: C or better in PHYS 3311 or SPY 315; corequisite PHYS 3317. Previously SPY 316 Chemistry-related Course Descriptions
