Those looking to take Physics at UC, here is your goal:
(From UC Website)
We offer Physics courses suitable for four different purposes:
- for studying Physics or Astronomy
- for studying Engineering
- for studying Biological or Environmental Sciences
- for philosophical or general interest.
The core first-year Physics courses are offered as a sequence. Where you start Physics depends on how well you have done in NCEA Level 3 physics and calculus (or an equivalent background eg, IB/Cambridge or overseas qualifications).
Students with 14 credits of NCEA Level 3 physics and calculus (or IB/Cambridge equivalent) can enrol in PHYS 101 Engineering Physics A: Mechanics, Waves and Thermal Physics, in order to advance into a full second-year Physics or Astronomy programme, or to meet the Engineering Intermediate Year Physics requirements.
Those students who have not gained this credit standard will be advised to enrol in an introductory Physics course, PHYS 111 Introductory Physics for Physical Sciences and Engineering.
