PHYSICS
ASSOCIATE IN SCIENCE IN PHYSICS FOR
TRANSFER DEGREE
(MAJOR
#C.3664.AS-T)
Physics is the study of the relationship between mass and
energy and provides a broad range of knowledge and problem
solving skills that are useful in many disciplines. The program
at Clovis Community College emphasizes topics that are
encountered in our everyday lives: linear and rotational
motion in two and three dimensions, forces, gravity, fluids,
waves, sound, heat, electricity, magnetism, and light. The
following topics are also briefly introduced: special relativity,
atoms, introduction to quantummechanics, and the cosmos
are also included.
A physics major degree generally transfers to a four-year
institution to complete a bachelor’s degree. Physics graduates
at the bachelors’ level are qualified for a variety of technical
positions with government or industry, and they are also well
prepared to enter a graduate program in any other science or
in engineering. Physics majors are welcomed into professional
programs such as law, business, or medicine. Teaching at the
high school level with a bachelor’s degree or at a two- year
college with a masters’ degree are additional career options for
the physics major. For the physicist who obtains the Ph.D.,
experimental or theoretical research and/or teaching at the
university level or basic research in government or industry
are options for gainful employment.
Many four-year colleges and universities offer bachelors
degrees in physics. There are some systems and institutions
that offer the advanced degrees in physics. Requirements vary
from system to system and from campus to campus for each
level of degree. The advice of a counselor and consultation
of institutional catalogs for specific information is highly
recommended.
Program Learning Outcomes:
1. Apply algebra, trigonometry, and/or first-year calculus
to solve physical problems within the topics covered
in class.
To obtain the Associate in Science in Physics for Transfer
Degree, students must complete the following requirements:
1. Completion of 60 semester units or 90 quarter units
that are eligible for transfer to the California
State University, including both of the following:
a. The Intersegmental General Education Transfer
Curriculum (IGETC) or the California
State University General Education –
Breadth requirements.
b. A minimum of 18 semester units or 27 quarter
