Here is a sampling of courses that I have taught at Agnes Scott College:

PHY 110L: Intro Physics Lab: Mechanics, Momentum and Energy
  • This course introduces students to experimentation, data analysis and uncertainty, while allowing them to get some hands-on experience with topics that are covered in the lecture. Labs include experiments in motion, forces, momentum and energy.
  • Sample Syllabus
PHY 111L: Intro Physics Lab: Electricity, Magnetism, and Waves
  • This course introduces students to experimentation, data analysis and uncertainty, while allowing them to get some hands-on experience with topics that are covered in the lecture. Labs include experiments in electric fields, circuits, optics and sound.
  • Sample Syllabus
PHY 210: Modern Physics
  • Introduction to Modern Physics with an emphasis on both the experiments and theory behind relativity, quantum mechanics, atomic physics, and nuclear physics. 
  • Sample Syllabus
PHY 352: Optics
  • An introductory course in classical and modern optics. Classical topics include geometrical optics, diffraction, interference and polarization. Modern optics topics will be adapted to the interests of the students and may include topics such as lasers, nonlinear optics, or lidar. Laboratory experiments will be included to enhance the theoretical discussions.
