The purpose of this course is to provide students with an introduction to human movement that includes the historical development of physical education, exercise education, exercise science, and sport. This course offers the student both an introduction to the knowledge base, as well as, information on expanding career opportunities.
An introduction to fundamental concepts of the physical and life sciences. Application to daily experiences and critical evaluation of science as discussed in the public domain will be emphasized. The approach will be primarily descriptive in nature, with basic mathematical principles applied to understanding relationships and expressing data derived during hands-on investigations.
This course will introduce mechanical behavior of materials. We will examine stress and strain at a point, the principle of stresses and strains and how they relate to each other. We will also determine the stresses and deformations due to axial loading, torsional loading, and flexural loading. Additionally, stresses due to combined loading and buckling of columns will be covered.
A continuation of PHY251 with emphasis upon electricity, magnetism, physical and geometric optics, and modern physics.
A study of the function, regulation, control, and interrelationships of all the organ systems of the human body. Major divisions covered include human cell, muscular system, nervous system, sense organs, endocrine system, cardiovascular system, vascular system, respiratory system, digestive system, urinary system, water and electrolyte balance, reproductive system.

A study of the structure of the human body. Lectures emphasize structures of all the systems of the human body (integumetry, skeletal, muscular, nervous, sense organs, endocrine, cardiovascular, repiratory, digestive, and urinary). Laboratory work includes study of the human skeleton, dissection of the cat, sheep brain, beef/sheep heart, and beef/sheep kidney.
