PHYS& 100 — Physics for Non-Science Majors
NS- Intended for non-science majors, this class is an introduction to scientific inquiry through the exploration of a subset of topics covered in a general physics series. Students will be encouraged to examine science's place in a global, cultural context. With an emphasis on active discovery, students are guided to construct scientific concepts for themselves based on their own observations and hands-on experimentation. A major goal is to view science as an active process of inquiry as opposed to a memorized, stagnant body of knowledge.
