Physics Department

The physics discipline has six full time faculty. We offer introductory physics classes at three different levels, from PHY 101 that is algebra based, our PHY 111/112 sequence which is trigonometry based to the PHY 211/212 sequence that is calculus based. In addition we teach classes in Astronomy and Physical Science to students that are looking for a general science class. Our faculty travel the country giving talks at state and national conferences and leading national workshops for training new instructors. Delta's Physics program is used as a model for other two-year colleges looking to implement a dynamic hands-on approach that has proven to be effective in preparing students for future courses and their career.
