LACR 230 - SIFT: Visual Physics

3 credits
This course provides a visually-based but rigorous investigation of a range of topics in physics, including mechanics, optics, acoustics, and relativity theory. It is a course specifically designed for art students, but is not a “”physics for poets”” course - that is, the course involves investigation and analysis, rather than simple discussion of physical concepts. The primary objective of the course is to present students with an understanding of both the methods of physics.
