PHYSICS 1 ,1 PHY 3400L Holography Laboratory (P] PHY 3464 The Physical Basis of Music [P] (MAC 1142) Note also that any of the general physics sequen- tial courses (PHY 2004-5, PHY 3040-1, and PHY 3053-4 meet this requirement). COURSES: There are three course sequences in Introductory Physics: PHY 2004-2005 (2004L-2005L) emphasize the practical applications of basic physics to a wide range of professions, including architecture, agricultural sci- ences, building construction, forest resources, nursing, and physical therapy. PHY 2039-3040-3041-3042 (3055L-3056L) is the sequence for all prospective physics, other science and engineering majors. This sequence provides a bal- anced, thorough, and well-paced introduction to physics. Small discussion groups are an integral part of these lecture courses. A required co-requisite is the calculus sequence through MAC 3313. The one credit laboratories are normally taken concurrently with PHY 3040 and PHY 3041. PHY 3040-3041 are required for all engineering majors. PHY 3042 is required only of Physics, Engineering Sciences, Nuclear Engineering, and Nuclear Engineering Sciences .majors. For those with a physics background, a place- ment exam may exempt students from PHY 2039. PHY 3053-3054 (3055L-3056L) are intended pri- marily for students not majoring in a physical science or an engineering field. These courses are usually taken by pre-professional students (pre-medical, pre- dental, etc.), especially those who have not taken cal- culus or who do not plan to take the complete calculus sequence.
