About the course

The Department of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Montana-Missoula is dedicated to excellence in undergraduate education and research. Our faculty and staff are dedicated to quality teaching, committed to research and scholarly activity, and engaged in service to the University and the community.

　　Physics is the science that has as its objective the formulation and verification of laws or relationships among the different physical quantities. Some of the most important of these quantities are mass, time, length, force, energy, momentum, electric charge, electric field strength, entropy and wavelength. These quantities and the relations among them, which we call laws, have been found to serve in and to explain a wide range of phenomena such as occur in mechanics, heat, electricity, magnetism, light, atomic and nuclear physics and in such related subjects as engineering, biophysics, meteorology and geophysics. In addition, the subject of philosophy is profoundly influenced both by the methods and development of physics. The department also offers a variety of courses in astronomy. These courses are designed to provide a good background in the related fields of mathematics and physics and to include a thorough preparation in astronomy and astrophysics.
