Courses may be offered in one of the following modalities:

  • Traditional in-person courses (0–29 percent of coursework is delivered online, the majority being offered in person.)
  • Hybrid/blended courses (30–79 percent of coursework is delivered online.)
  • Online courses (100 percent of coursework is delivered online, either synchronously on a designated day and time or asynchronously as a deadline-driven course.)
  • Hyflex (Students will be assigned to attend in-person or live streamed sessions as a reduced-size cohort on a rotating basis; live sessions are also recorded, offering students the option to participate synchronously or view asynchronously as needed.)

If you are enrolled in courses delivered in traditional or hybrid modalities, you will be expected to attend face-to-face instruction as scheduled.


PHY 114: Physics For Science Majors II

4 credits

Students will learn key principles of and analytical, calculus-based problem-solving skills in thermodynamics; electrostatics; magnetism and magnetic induction; dc and ac circuits; electromagnetism; geometrical optics; and physical optics. Students will complete weekly laboratories to explore the material in a physical setting.  Numerical and computational skills will be reinforced. (Distribution Reqs:Natural Sciences)

Learning Goals

COURSE LEARNING GOALS: Students will be introduced to a wide-range of fundamentals concepts in classical physics. The student will obtain a solid foundation of physical reasoning, putting newly learned mathematics to work solving problems.

*The learning goals displayed here are those for one section of this course as offered in a recent semester, and are provided for the purpose of information only. The exact learning goals for each course section in a specific semester will be stated on the syllabus distributed at the start of the semester, and may differ in wording and emphasis from those shown here.
