Topics include geometric and wave optics, electric and magnetic fields, and linear circuits.
See Course DetailsAdvanced Introductory Physics I
The first semester of introductory physics, presented at a rigorous level. This course is intended primarily, but not exclusively, for prospective majors in physics or physics and astronomy. Students should already have a firm grasp of differential and integral calculus. Topics include Newtonian mechanics, wave mechanics, and thermodynamics.
See Course DetailsAdvanced Introductory Physics II
The second semester of introductory physics, presented at a rigorous level. This course is intended primarily, but not exclusively, for prospective majors in physics or physics and astronomy. Topics include geometric and wave optics, electric and magnetic fields, and linear circuits. Multivariable calculus is used throughout the course.
See Course DetailsIntroductory Physics Seminar
Topics in physics and astronomy presented by faculty and visitors. Topics will vary from year to year, and several topics will be considered weekly.
See Course DetailsIntroduction to Scientific Programming, Data Analysis, and Visualization for Physicists
A hands-on introduction to practical computer programming, data analysis, and data visualization for physics majors. Students learn the fundamentals of developing, debugging, and running programs in Python or another similar high-level programming language. Students will be exposed to multiple example problems of particular importance to physics. No prior programming experience is assumed.
