5 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 1050Concepts of Physics4
A one-semester course in which a small number of fundamental physical principles are used to explore a wide range of phenomena. The basic conservation laws and their applications will be stressed. Topics will range from Newtonian mechanics to the modern wave/particle duality of quantum mechanics. The course is designed to satisfy the University of Wyoming’s physical science requirement. Students receiving credit for PHYS 1050 cannot receive credit for PHYS 1310.
MATH 0900 (C or better) or higher, or TECH 1000 (C or better) , or ACT of 16 or higher, or ALEKS 14 or higher.
Corequisite
PHYS 1051
PHYS 1110General Physics I4
This course is the first of a two-semester non-calculus physics sequence. It is primarily for majors in biology, pre-medicine, and other majors that do not require calculus-based physics. Topics include mechanics, gravitation, and heat. Laboratory sessions illustrate the principles studied. Students receiving credit for PHYS 1110 cannot receive credit for PHYS 1050. Offered: Fall semester
MATH 1400 (C or better) or higher, or ACT Math score of 25 or higher, or ALEKS score of 61 or higher.
Corequisite
PHYS 1111
PHYS 1120General Physics II4
The second course of a two-semester non-calculus-based physics sequence. Topics include electricity, magnetism, optics, and modern physics. Laboratory sessions illustrate the principles studied. (Generally offered spring semester.) Offered: Generally offered spring semester
This course is the first of a two-semester calculus-based physics sequence. It is primarily for majors in physics, engineering, and other majors that require calculus-based physics. The course includes classical mechanics, gravitation, and wave mechanics. Laboratory sessions illustrate the principles studied and the meaning of physical measurement. Students receiving credit for PHYS 1310 cannot receive credit for PHYS 1050. Offered: Fall semester
MATH 2200 (C or better, or may be taken concurrently)
Corequisite
PHYS 1311
PHYS 1320College Physics II4
The second course of a two-semester sequence with calculus. The course includes electricity, magnetism, and optics. Laboratory sessions illustrate the principles studied and the meaning of physical measurement. Students receiving credit for PHYS 1320 cannot receive credit for PHYS 1050. Offered: Generally offered spring semester
