    Fall Schedule
Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion revolves around course schedules for the Fall 2007 semester at the University of Arizona. Participants share their planned classes, including MATH223 (Vector Calculus), PHYS151 (Intro to Mechanics), and various advanced courses in physics and engineering. Many students express concerns about late classes and the challenges of balancing their schedules. The conversation also touches on personal experiences with different class timings and the impact on study habits.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of university-level mathematics, specifically calculus and linear algebra.
  • Familiarity with physics concepts, particularly mechanics and advanced topics.
  • Knowledge of academic scheduling and course load management.
  • Basic awareness of university course structures and requirements.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research effective time management strategies for balancing late classes.
  • Explore resources for mastering advanced physics topics, such as E&M and Quantum Mechanics.
  • Investigate study techniques specific to engineering and mathematics courses.
  • Look into academic support services available at universities for course planning and tutoring.
USEFUL FOR

Students at the University of Arizona, prospective engineering and physics majors, and anyone looking to optimize their course schedules and study strategies.

Physics - Math Methods

If you can manage to take this class from Dr. Gelmini, I highly recommend her.

OK, I waited a bit because I was in the process of registering a final class. Here's my schedule:

E MCH 210 Statics & Structures of Materials (5 cr.)
GEOG 122 The American Scene (dumb general education course) (3 cr.)
MATH 230 Calculus III with Vector Analysis (4 cr.)
MUSIC 50 Beginner Piano for Non-Music Majors (1 cr.)
PHYS 212 Electricity & Magnetism with Lab (4 cr.)

Methinks I'll be a bit busy.

Can you take statics and Mechanics as separate courses? Id prefer to see you taking both of them. They tend to gloss over and skip things when they combine courses, that or its rush rush rush.

I can take Dynamics and Strengths of Materials separately, but right now it's a little late to switch. A significant amount is skipped, usually?

Well, statics and MoM are really going to be the foundation for all your other courses later on. Everything will build on top of these courses. I took them separately. I think its really worth it to take them one each semester. Vibrations, Aerodynamics, Material Science, Dynamics. All these classes will be a continuation of Statics and MoM. If you can spend the time to master these two classes, life will be a LOT easier. Most people who struggle later on usually have weak backgrounds in statics. For statics get Hibbeler and Beer-Johnson and know them both cover to cover. I spent an entire summer working through every problem in Hibbeler's statics, you should really consider doing the same after you finish the course and have free time. You will pick up the skill on how to recognize tricks to solving problems and will make you good at realizing when to play geometric tricks.

Moose, what's your name? Where do you go to High School? I live in Tucson...I'm considering going to UA for physics major.
