Courses

These syllabi reflect my work nurturing the physics curriculum at Centenary College of Louisiana. In my courses, students learn to wield standard theoretical tools, but they also apply them in open-ended projects.

General Education

My general education course emphasizes how physics influences public questions about energy and technology.

PHYS 103/113: Conceptual Physics

Physics Core

I led the reintroduction of the physics major at Centenary. The major includes supporting coursework in math, chemistry, and computer science, but the syllabi below represent the core sequence for the B.A. The B.S. degree also includes upper-level elective coursework in physics.

PHYS 104/114: Physics I

PHYS 105/115: Physics II

PHYS 302/304: Modern Physics

PHYS 312/314: Analytical Mechanics

PHYS 321/323: Thermal and Stat Mech

PHYS 402: Physics Capstone
