10 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 105Concepts in Physics 3:3:1
Designed for students who are not majoring in the sciences. The course provides a conceptual view of major topics in classical and modern physics with a limited mathematical approach. Topics include mechanics, energy, heat, optics, light, and special relativity, models of the atom, and electricity and magnetism. A course fee is required. Prerequisite: MATH 051 or 045 with a grade of C or higher. (SCI/LAB)
Is intended for students interested in pursuing careers as health technicians. The course covers such topics as mechanics, sound and electromagnetic waves, atomic structure, radioactivity and its production, electricity, circuits and magnetism, static and dynamic fluids. A three-hour laboratory is required with this course. A course fee is required. Prerequisite: MATH 103, 119 or 121 with a grade of C or higher.
Designed for students who wish to become radiographers. Major topics include electromagnetic applications, diagnostic radiographic imaging systems, nuclear medicine, radiation therapy, and ultrasonography with major emphasis in the field of diagnostic radiology. Prerequisite: PHYS 151 with a grade of C or higher.
Reviews atomic structure and terminology and establishes knowledge of the nature and characteristics of radiation, x-ray production, and the fundamentals of photon interactions with matter. This course is restricted to students who are enrolled in the Radiology Technology AS program. Prerequisite: PHYS 151 with a grade of C or higher.
Discusses the topics essential to students interested in pursuing a career in diagnostic imaging. The course covers mechanics, sound and electromagnetic waves, electricity, circuits and magnetism, static and dynamic fluids, and radiation. This course is restricted to students in the Diagnostic Medical Sonography AAS program. Prerequisite: MATH 103, 119 or 121 with a grade of C or higher.
