As a cross-listed course, the requirements and expectations for PHYS 303 and RCS 303 are somewhat different:
Students enrolled in PHYS 303 are expected to be conversant with and able to manipulate algebraic equations involving at the most squares and square roots. PHYS 303 who require assistance or even a memory jog are encouraged to visit the Physics Aid Service offered by the Department of Physics and Astronomy. Click on the link for information about the room and schedule information.
Students enrolled in RCS 303 will not be expected to reproduce these calculations and in detail, will be evaluated differently than PHYS 303 students. For instance, RCS students will have an option of submitting an essay at the end of the term in lieu of sitting the final exam
Finally, note that this course IS a third year course and formally, enrolled students are expected to have a third year standing. This means that class will be managed as an upper level class. There will be assigned readings - some of which will be used to launch classroom discussions and others are there to help clarify discussed during the lectures. The lectures are not intended to review the assigned readings and often, will present a parallel but different way of thinking about the topics of interest.
