14 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.
The course will explore current and sometimes controversial topics in science. Topics will vary, and will be related to the natural science discipline prefix including concepts in chemistry, physics, geology, meteorology and climate science, geography, and mathematics.
The course will explore the basic principles of physical science which describe the world we live in and the universe that surrounds us. Topics will vary related to the physical science discipline prefix including concepts in chemistry, physics, geology, meteorology and climate science, geography, and mathematics.
Explores the nature of the Sun, the planets, and the major moons. Examines the motions of the Earth, moon, and the planets and their effects on the appearance of the sky. Includes constellation identification through the use of the planetarium or software.
This course is designed for non-science majors and is concerned with a different part of the new revolution in astronomy showing how much there is that is fresh and young in the oldest science. Topics include evolution histories of stars, galaxies, the universe, and the solar system.
This is an introductory lecture course on the fundamentals of astronomy. An emphasis is placed on observing and understanding celestial objects in our solar system, galaxy and universe. Extensive use of a planetarium highlights the in-person experience while the online offering uses a desktop planetarium such as stellarium.
The course will explore and apply scientific principles that describe and explain interesting current topics in the environmental sciences. Topics will be related to the environmental science discipline prefix including concepts in biology, meteorology and climate science, geology, geography, chemistry and physics.
This course is the first course in a two-semester sequence of algebra-based physics for students seeking an understanding of physics at a relaxed mathematical level. The course is an analytical study of classical mechanics, including energy, momentum and mechanical waves, and thermodynamics. PHYS 1510 Laboratory must be taken concurrently.
This course is the laboratory which accompanies the first course in a two-semester sequence of algebra-based physics. Topcis will include Newton’s Laws governing force, work, energy, momentum, and gravitation; linear and rotational motion, fluid mechanics, harmonic motion, waves, and heat flow. PHYS 1500 lecture must be taken concurrently.
This course is the second course in a two-semester sequence of algebra-based physics for students seeking an understanding of physics at a relaxed mathematical level. Emphasizes electricity, magnetism, and optics.
This course is the laboratory which accompanies the second course in a two-semester sequence of algebra-based physics. Topics will include current flow, electrical potential, electromagnetic and electrostatic fields, and optics.
This course is the first course in a two-semester sequence of calculus-based physics for students seeking an understanding of physics at a rigorous mathematical level. The course is an analytical study of classical mechanics, including energy, momentum and mechanical waves, and thermodynamics.
