If so, you're in the right spot! In the sections below, we will give you an overview of college physics courses and explicit details and links to Montana State University physics courses. We'll also reassure you that our proficient team of physics tutors can assist you with your college physics course, regardless of whether you're an MSU student or not!
Why Do You Need to Take Physics?
A multitude of college majors demand a significant comprehension of physics, as the principles of this science are fundamental to many disciplines. Some of these majors include:
Astrophysics: An integration of astronomy and physics focusing on the physical properties and processes of celestial bodies and the universe.
Mechanical Engineering: Deals with understanding physical forces in systems and the impact of materials' properties.
Civil Engineering: Combines physics, math, and social sciences to effectively design, construct, and maintain the physical and naturally built environment.
Biological Physics: Blends biology and physics to develop technologies for human health and the environment, covering topics such as biophotonics, quantum biology, and quantum genetics.
Kinesiology: Studies the mechanics of body movements and the effects of physical activity on health, performance, and well-being, preparing students for careers in fitness, rehabilitation, and sports management, illuminated by the principles of physics.
Physics Courses We Can Tutor In
Our renowned Bozeman university, Montana State University (MSU), provides a wide array of introductory physics courses. The specific course requirements are tailored based on each student's program of study.
At MSU, every PHSX (Physics) course is divided into lectures, lab sections, and recitations. Lectures allow instructors to present theoretical concepts and elucidate their application in real-world situations. Next, labs supply students with the chance to apply the theoretical knowledge gained in lectures via hands-on experiments. Finally, recitations offer a setting for students to revisit lecture content, ask questions, and work on practice problems.
Outlined below is a synopsis of the most sought-after physics courses that students frequently request tutoring in. All of this information is derived from the Montana State University Academic Catalog. For more in-depth information about MSU Physics courses, click here.
PHSX 103IN The Physics of How Things Work: Practical approach to fundamental physics topics for non-science majors through everyday life examples. Analyzes issues like energy and recycling with hands-on activities.
PHSX 205 College Physics I: Covers kinematics, dynamics, work, energy, momentum, and fluids. First semester of a sequence.
PHSX 207 College Physics II: Topics include harmonic motion, electric and magnetic fields, circuits, and motors. Second semester of a sequence.
PHSX 220 Physics I with Calculus: Mechanics and mechanical waves for engineering and physical science students. Includes motion, Newton's laws, energy, and wave motion.
PHSX 222 Physics II with Calculus: Electricity, magnetism, and optics. Topics include Coulomb's law, Gauss' law, circuits, and Maxwell's equations.
