• A study of (DC) direct current and Classical Physics models.
  • Anthropology is the multidisciplinary, holistic study of humankind- both ancient and modern and includes their biological variability, their cultures and societies and languages. Cultural Anthropology deals with the description and analysis of cultures. Anthropology has been called the most humanistic of the sciences and the most scientific of the humanities.
  • Students in this course will study the history and nature of biology as a science, the unifying concepts in biology, the chemical and cellular basis of life, cellular metabolism and classical genetics. Methods of learning will include lectures, audio-visual presentations, computer simulations, and classroom as well as laboratory exercises. Pre-requisite: High school biology, chemistry strongly recommended
  • Integrated Science is a lab science course primarily designed to prepare incoming freshman with a foundational knowledge of the sciences. By developing a strong foundation in the sciences this course will help to prepare students for success in more advanced science courses offered at TCP. This course emphasizes the basic physical, chemical, and biological sciences and also integrates basic algebraic problem solving skills into the curriculum. Topics of study include: The Metric System, Classifying Matter, Unit Conversions, Basic Mechanics, Atoms, Isotopes, and Ions, Molecular and Ionic Compounds, Foundations of Biology.
  • Chemistry is a lab science course designed to prepare upper classmen and sophomores for college level chemistry and science courses by exploring quantitative relationships between matter and energy. Topics of study include: Matter and Change, Chemical Reactions, The Behavior of Gasses, Thermochemistry, Bonding, and Acids and Bases. Students will perform lab experiments designed to explore these topics and develop basic lab skills.
