PHYS 105 The Physical Universe



This is a conceptual survey course covering the basic principles of physics and space science. Emphasis will be placed on developing an appreciation of the subject as it relates both to every day phenomena and to socially relevant physical science issues. The course is specifically designed for the non-technical student and requires only a minimal fluency in mathematics. This course also forms part of a three-course series with BIO 105  and CHEM 105 . Together the three courses provide an overview of the natural sciences and fulfill the requirements for Virginia state elementary (K-6) teacher licensure. The courses may be taken in any sequence. Three-hour lecture plus two-hour laboratory per week. Credit(s): 4

Corequisite(s): PHYL 105 The Physical Universe lab must be taken concurrently
