 Physics |
Students planning to transfer to a four-year institution and major
in either physics or astronomy should consult with a counselor regarding
the transfer process and lower division requirements.
Physics is fundamental science. It is concerned with finding and using
the rules that govern everything—from the smallest pieces of the atom to
the various collections of atoms—molecules, balls, planets, stars, and
more—that compose the myriad contents of the universe.
Physics courses are offered to meet diverse students' needs: (1) an
introductory course which is descriptive and uses little mathematics
provides an overview of physics for Liberal Arts and Science majors; (2)
Physics for the Life Sciences presents physics in sufficient depth for
students whose careers in life sciences and related fields will require
a physics background with some experience with calculus and (3) PHYSIC
200, 201 and 210 provide a rigorous development of physics using
calculus to prepare students for further studies in the physical
sciences, engineering, and mathematics.
Students majoring in physics will be rewarded on the personal level with
a deep understanding of the world around us. On a professional level,
physicists find a variety of employment opportunities which are
relatively free of ethnic and gender bias, pay well, reward creativity,
and are just plain fun. |
