Course Information for PHYS 123:

Title: Introduction to Modern and Classical Physics
Professor: Staff.
Hours: 3
Description: F, core (with 181). This course, along with 124, serves as an introduction to both classical and modern physics for students planning to major in science or mathematics. It also introduces some concepts from astronomy. Mathematically qualified students are encouraged to satisfy the core requirement with 123/181 rather than with 110. Topics in classical physics include mechanics and thermodynamics. The nature of scientific study in general and its place in one's world and life view are discussed. Prerequisites: concurrent registration in or completion of 181 and Mathematics 161.

Course Information for PHYS 124:

Title: Introduction to Modern and Classical Physics
Professor: Staff.
Hours: 3
Description: S. A continuation of 123, which is a prerequisite. Prerequisites: Mathematics 161 and concurrent registration in Mathematics 162 and Physics 182.

Course Information for PHYS 181:

Title: Basic Electrical Measurements
Professor: Staff.
Hours: 1
