Electronics Lab — PHY2213.02

Instructor: Hugh Crowl
Days & Time: MO 1:40pm-5:20pm
Credits: 2

This course will serve as an introduction to working with circuits in a lab setting. We will learn about the relatively simple rules necessary for working with analog circuits and how those rules can be used to build objects of growing complexity. We will then move on to understanding how to build circuits that can measure properties of and interact with their surroundings.

A Brief Introduction to Astronomical Observing — PHY2212.01

Instructor: Hugh Crowl
Days & Time: M/T/W/Th/F/Sa/Su 7:30PM-9:20PM

In this course, students will learn the fundamentals of observing the night sky with a telescope. This course will teach how to find the basic constellations and how to use both manual and computerized telescopes to point at celestial objects in the night sky. While there will be some classroom time to teach fundamental concepts, the vast majority of the class will consist of practical, hands-on time with telescopes at Stickney Observatory.
