Physics Curriculum:
The Physics Course curriculum is built on the most recent edition of the
widely acclaimed Conceptual Physics text book, written by Paul Hewitt. This
is an excellent, readable text for a first course in Physics - possibly the
best introductory physics text book ever written.
An outline of the material we will cover this semester appears below:
