            |  | Lawrence Guth |  Objectives for the Program in PhysicsThe Physics program offers a variety of courses which fulfill the laboratory science requirement for all students. PHYS 1100 , PHYS 1200 , PHYS 2000 , are for non-science majors and are strongly recommended for satisfying the Liberal Arts and Sciences requirements. PHYS 2300   and PHYS 2400   are the standard non-calculus general Physics courses offered at most baccalaureate institutions. The sequence is taken by chemistry, biology, computer sciences, mathematics, and most industrial technology majors. They are also appropriate to the non-science major interested in applying mathematical problem-solving techniques to physical settings.  and    are calculus-based versions of PHYS 2300 and PHYS 2400, respectively.  Majors in Computer Science and Mathematics are encouraged to take this sequence, as is anyone with the appropriate mathematical background.
