PHYS 610 - Scientific Computation

(3 credits)

This course will teach students to build computational tools for a classroom/laboratory environment. Students will learn standard computational physics algorithms and use these algorithms to build classroom activities to bring back to their classroom and/or data analysis tools to bring back to their physics laboratory. Topics include programming basics, data analysis, computational physics algorithms and analysis of classroom data. Prerequisites: Introductory Electromagnetism (PHYS 222, 202, or equivalent) and Calculus (MATH 213 or equivalent) or instructor permission. Grade or P/NC. Offered alternate years.
