Course Descriptions All Courses 
PHYS 1401 General College Physics I
Study of principles and applications of concepts in mechanics, energy, heat, wave motion, and sound. PHYS 1401/1402 is the standard algebra-based physics sequence and may, in addition, serve as a prerequisite for the calculus-based PHYS 2425/2426 sequence for students who have not taken high school physics. General College Physics I: Honors - Please contact the Honors Department at 223-3255 or honors@austincc.edu for additional information. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or better in MATH 1314 or equivalent.

PHYS 1402 General College Physics II
Study of principles and applications of concepts in electricity and magnetism, geometric and physical optics, and modern physics. This is the second half of the algebra-based PHYS 1401/1402 sequence. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or better in PHYS 1401.

PHYS 1405 Conceptual Physics I
Conceptual survey of topics in physics, including the fundamentals of motion, forces, energy and momentum. Intended for liberal arts and other non-science majors, but science majors with weak physics background may wish to use this as an introduction to physics principles.

PHYS 1407 Conceptual Physics II
Conceptual survey of topics in physics, including the fundamentals of optics, electricity, magnetism and modern physics. Intended for liberal arts and other non-science majors, but science majors with weak physics background may wish to use this as an introduction to physics principles.
