Second course in an algebra/trigonometry-based two semester sequence. Core topics include electricity & magnetism, light, and selected topics in modem physics.
First course in a two-semester sequence required of most premedical, biology, veterinary, physical therapy, and architecture degrees. Core topics include kinematics, dynamics, work and energy, momentum, rotations, simple harmonic motion, fluids, heat, and thermodynamics.
Third laboratory course in a calculus-based four-semester sequence. Core topics include experiments in sound, waves, electrical oscillations, thermodynamics, geometrical optics, and physical optics.
First laboratory course in a calculus-based four-semester sequence. Core topics include experiments in kinematics, dynamics, energy, momentum, rotation, and oscillations.
A single semester course emphasizing concepts and problem solving in kinematics, dynamics, energy, momentum, rotational motion and electricity. This course is intended to prepare students to take a college-level, problem-solving physics course using calculus.
Conceptual physics taught within the context of sports including football, baseball,
soccer, cycling, and tennis. Content is taught at an introductory level using basic math
such as vectors, ratios, square roots, and algebra. Topics include Newton's laws,
projectile and rotational motion, momentum, energy, and aerodynamics.
An overview of physics. Content is taught at a conceptual level using basic math such as ratios, square roots, scientific notation, graph interpretation, slope and simple algebra. Topics include mechanics, properties of matter, heat, sound, electricity, magnetism, light, and nuclear physics.
This is the fourth course in a calculus-based four-semester sequence. Core modern physics topics include special relativity, quantum mechanics, atomic physics, and solid state physics.
This is the third course in a calculus-based four-semester sequence. Core topics include mechanical, sound, and light waves; geometrical and physical optics; and thermodynamics.
