About

Overview Many problems which are not readily solvable using traditional analytic methods will be incorporated into the Physics program of Claremont McKenna College, and solutions will invoke numerical integration, computer modeling,and other numerical techniques introduced in the classroom.Student Learning OutcomesWhen confronted with an unfamiliar physical or dynamical system or situation, our students should be able to:Develop a conceptual framework for understanding the system by identifying the key physical principles, relationships, and constraints underlying the system;Translate that conceptual framework into an appropriate mathematical format/model;If the mathematical model/equations are analytically tractable, carry out the analysis of the problem to completion (by demonstrating knowledge of and proficiency with the standard mathematical tools of physics and engineering);If the model/equations are not tractable, develop a computer code and/or use standard software/programming languages (e.g., Matlab, Maple, Python) to numerically simulate the model system;Intelligently analyze, interpret, and assess the reasonableness of the answers obtained and/or the model's predictions;Effectively communicate their findings (either verbally and/or via written expression) to diverse audiences.

The Physics program of Claremont McKenna College places a strong emphasis on computational and numerical techniques while still retaining the core material common to all physics majors.
