- Fred Browning, Ph.D. Chair Engineering and Physics Department.
The Department of Engineering and Physics at Palm Beach Atlantic University incorporates a rigorous mathematical and scientific foundation along with hands-on projects to give students a solid and practical engineering experience. From laboratory assignments, individual and group projects, computer modeling and simulation, students will learn the skills required for the ever-changing field of engineering. Along with this academic training, students also will examine, from a Christian perspective, the moral and ethical issues that arise while working in the field of engineering. The department also offers courses PHY 1033 - The Cosmos , and PHY 1063 - Acoustics of Music , for non-science majors. These courses are designed to meet the general education science requirement.
Courses in Engineering and Physics:
Students must take all components of courses with co-requisites at the same time. If the student wants to withdraw from one of the components, he/she must withdraw from all components of the co-requisite courses. The only exception: if a student previously took all of the components of the co-requisite courses and received a passing grade in one of the components, the student would not have to retake the component with the passing grade.
Courses for General Education Credit:
For students taking the following General Education Courses, the laboratory course may be dropped without dropping the lecture course. The lecture course cannot be dropped while keeping enrollment in the laboratory course. The laboratory course can be taken by itself only when prior credit has been earned in the lecture course.
