PHYSICS 101<br />
Physics for Engineers and Scientists I<br />
5 UNITS - (UC:CSU)<br />
Prerequisite: Physics 11 with a satisfactory grade or high school physics.<br />
Co-requisite: Mathematics 261.<br />
Advisory: English 28/31 or equivalent.<br />
Lecture 3 hours. Laboratory/tutorial and demonstration 6 hours.<br />
Physics 101 is the first of a three-semester, calculus-based sequence of<br />
physics courses. The sequence is designed for engineering, science and<br />
math majors. (Physics 102 and 103 complete the sequence.) Topics<br />
covered in Physics 101 include the field of mechanics, (both statics and<br />
dynamics), Newton’s laws, translational and rotational motion, work and<br />
energy, elasticity, fluid mechanics, simple harmonic motion, and gravitational<br />
theory.<br />

Physics for Engineers and Scientists II<br />
5 UNITS - (UC:CSU)<br />
Prerequisite: Physics 101 with a satisfactory grade or equivalent.<br />
Co-requisite: Concurrent enrollment in Mathematics 262, unless taken<br />
previously.<br />
Lecture 3 hours. Laboratory/tutorial and demonstration 6 hours.<br />
Physics 102 is the second of a three-semester, calculus-based sequence<br />
of general physics courses designed for engineering, science and math<br />
majors. Topics covered include: thermodynamics, (with applications to heat<br />
engines); a rigorous introduction to electrostatic and magnetic fields,<br />
capacitance and inductance, DC and AC circuits, resonance and Maxwell’s<br />
equations.<br />
PHYSICS 103<br />
Physics for Engineers and Scientists III<br />

Career Program<br />
The Human Services curriculum, offered by the Department of Psychology,<br />
is a lower division two year course of study designed to train a student in<br />
one of two Options: Human Services Generalist or Drug/Alcohol Studies.<br />
The curriculum also serves as an introduction to the helping professions for<br />
students planning four year college degrees in Psychology, Human Services,<br />
Behavioral Science, Rehabilitation Counseling, Social Work, Health Science<br />
and Alcohol and Substance Abuse, and other majors. The Human Services<br />
Curriculum specifically trains paraprofessionals who are able to function in<br />
a wide variety of areas under professional supervision.<br />
Students in the Human Services Generalist Option and the Drug/Alcohol<br />
Studies Option complete the same core courses. Academic preparation is<br />
offered in basic psychology courses such as Introductory Psychology,<br />
Personality and Social Development, and Abnormal Psychology. Another<br />
part of the core classes concentrates on important communication skills
