PHYS-12000 Integrated Science 1

This course is designed for students requiring a general science class that integrates physics, chemistry, biology and environmental science.  This is the first semester of a two-semester sequence.  Topics covered include the practice of science, measurement, experimentation, forces and motion, optics, heat, energy, wave motions, atomic structure, chemical reactions, and an introduction to astronomy including the evolution of stars and an understanding of the solar system.  Emphasis is placed on the integration of these concepts across the physical, chemical and biological disciplines. This course plus the associated lab (PHYS 12100) fulfills the Science General Education requirement.
