Course Description:

The fundamental principles of heat, thermodynamics, atomic structure, relativity, quantum mechanics, superconductivity, particle physics and cosmology are covered in this course. The mathematical framework of differential and integral calculus are used in analysis of problems. This is the final course in the engineering physics sequence and thus brings the different areas of physics together.

This is the calculus-based physics sequence intended for scienrtists and engineers. Problem solving skills are emphasized along with understanding of fundamental principles. 

Course Handouts:

Whether you are currently enrolled in Physics 4C, or would like to "look the class over" for the future, the links below give you access to key course handouts.

Syllabus: includes the instructor hours and availability and course policies.

Class Schedule: includes lecture topics, reading and homework assignments

This sequence starts every spring. PHYS 4B is a prerequisite, and MATH 5C is normally taken concurrently. The instructor is Mike Read.
