Physics

For students planning to pursue a Physics major and transfer to a four-year institution, as a general rule, students should follow the Associate of Science Degree in General Studies at Grayson College as part of the Science and Technology Career Pathway. All students are advised to counsel with the university/college of their choice to determine which courses offered at Grayson College are applicable to that institution's bachelor's degree in their desired major.

Fundamental principles of physics, using algebra and trigonometry; the principles and applications of classical mechanics and thermodynamics, including harmonic motion, physical systems, Newton’s Laws of Motion, and gravitation; with emphasis on problem solving, constant acceleration.
