Course Syllabus Bachelor of Science Program Mahidol University International College Course Code ICPY 211 Course Title General Physics Number of Credits 4 (Lecture/ Lab - 4/0) Prerequisites ICPY 132 Principles Of Physics Type of Course General Education for Bachelor of Science Program Semester/ Academic Year 2nd trimester/ 2014-2015 Course Description The second introductory course for computer-science and physics majors that will include materials from thermodynamics, waves, sound wave and light wave, electricity and magnetism, dc and ac electrical circuits. Elementary calculus will be used. Course Objectives 1. To provide students an understanding of the fundamental principles of physics and its applications with emphasis on thermodynamics, sound and optics, electricity and electrical circuits. 2. Students should be able to solve basic problems using fundamental equations developed in the areas listed above. 3. Students should be able to apply fundamental principles of these fields of study to new situations.
