Science Lab
Freshman Foundations Science
A hands-on laboratory experience supporting Physics I and Chemistry through weekly alternating experimental modules.
Physics I – Elementary Mechanics & Harmonic Motion
Freshman Foundations Science
A rigorous study of Newtonian mechanics, kinematics, rigid body dynamics, work-energy principles, and transverse/longitudinal wave theory.
Physics II – Simple Harmonic Motion, Light and Sound
Freshman Sophomore Foundations Science
Covers wave behavior in light and sound, electrostatic and electromagnetic fields, circuit analysis, and instrumentation (transitioning to include electricity & magnetism for upcoming classes).
Physics III – Electricity & Magnetism
Sophomore Foundations Science
Investigates electrostatic and electromagnetic fields, resistors, inductors, capacitors, magnetic properties of matter, circuit network theorems, and AC transients.
Materials Science
Freshman Engineering Fundamentals Science
Investigates structure-property-processing relationships of shipbuilding materials with an emphasis on steel, alloys, composites, phase equilibrium, and heat treatment.
Chemistry
Freshman Foundations Science
Explores general chemistry fundamentals with a focus on corrosion and renewable energy applications. Topics include stoichiometry, gas laws, thermochemistry, and electrochemistry.
