DUAL ENROLLMENT (PHYS0174)
The Advanced Placement Physics C course focuses on the topics of Newtonian mechanics and electricity and magnetism. These topics are explored in great depth and at a very technical level. The use of calculus in problem solving and in derivations is expected to increase as the course progresses. This course is recommended for students interested in pursuing careers in science and engineering. Advanced Placement Physics C is an excellent complement to an AP Calculus course. Please review the AP Section in the tab above entitled "Course Levels and Prerequisites" before selecting this course. Summer assignments are required. Science Prerequisite: H Chemistry with a grade of “B” / Math Prerequisite: Completed 4H Calculus with a "B" or better and concurrently enrolled in 5H OR completed H PreCalculus with a "B". Teacher recommendation required. *Students who choose to pursue the dual enrollment option will earn 4 college credits from the University of Pittsburgh.
