Methods of Theoretical Physics focuses on the application of mathematics, the language of science, to physics, the most mathematical of the sciences. We apply to physics the methods of differential and integral calculus of one and several variables, infinite series, complex numbers, functions of a complex variable, vector calculus, matrices, linear vector spaces and differential equations. All areas of physics are considered, including mechanics, waves, fluids, thermodynamics, electricity, magnetism, optics, and modern physics.PHY 3200 can be used as an elective within the physics minor or as a general elective for the BA, BBA, or BS degrees.Prerequisite: PHY 2003 and PHY 3001 or PHY 3010 and PHY 3020; MTH 3020 and MTH 3030 or equivalent.
