Prerequisite: MATH 1001 or MATH 1180 or higher. This course introduces engineering technology students to the concept of motion, force, momentum, and energy. It emphasizes problem-solving techniques and application of algebra and trigonometry to physical situations. Laboratory work focuses on the correct reading of measuring instruments, the proper handling of measurements in calculations, and testing of physical theories using measured data. (4 contact hours: 2 lecture, 2 lab) [Catalog Entry]
ADDITIONAL FEES: $22.00

This introductory astronomy course is intended for students interested in the natural sciences. It introduces the basic concepts of astronomy including the Earth's position in the universe, theories of solar system and universe creation, basic Newtonian physics, light, the solar system components, our sun, telescope use, and galaxies. (4 contact hours) (OT36) [Catalog Entry]

Prerequisite: MATH 0850 or one year high school algebra. This course introduces students to basic concepts in physics as they relate to everyday objects and experiences. It uses some basic mathematics to develop topics. Topics include motion, forces, fluids, heat, electricity, and magnetism. This course is designed for non-science majors. (3 contact hours) (OT36) [Catalog Entry]

Prerequisite: MATH 1650 or permission of instructor. This is the first course in a two-course introductory physics sequence designed for students not majoring in engineering, physics, or chemistry. Topics, which are algebra/trigonometry-based, include vectors, kinematics, Newton's laws, energy, linear and angular momentum, rotational dynamics, fluids and thermodynamics. Students will complete experiments related to these topics in lab. (7 contact hours: 4 lecture, 3 lab) (OT36, TAG) [Catalog Entry]
ADDITIONAL FEES: $25.00

Prerequisite: PHYS 1610 or permission of instructor. This course is a continuation of PHYS 1610 General Physics I. Topics, which are algebra/trigonometry based, include electrostatics, capacitance, DC series and parallel circuits, electromagnetism, simple AC circuits, mechanical waves, geometric and physical optics, and modern physics. Students will complete experiments related to these topics in lab. (7 contact hours: 4 lecture, 3 lab) (OT36, TAG) [Catalog Entry]
ADDITIONAL FEES: $25.00

Prerequisite: MATH 2600, PHYS 2410; or permission of instructor. This course is a continuation of PHYS 2410 Science and Engineering Physics I designed for engineering and science majors. Topics, which are calculus-based, include electrostatics, including Gauss's law and electric potential; capacitance; DC circuits; electromagnetism, including the Biot law, Ampere's law, Faraday's law and Lenz's law; mechanical waves; and geometrical and physical optics. Students will complete experiments related to these topics in lab. (7 contact hours: 4 lecture, 3 lab) (OT36, TAG) [Catalog Entry]
