In this course we shall study the structure and evolution of stars, the properties of galaxies, and the past, present, and future of the Universe. There are no college-level prerequisites for either course, but typical high school algebra and science preparation is assumed. The weekly reading assignments are listed on the reverse side of this sheet.
Readings are to be completed before the corresponding lectures.
The first homework assignment will be handed out at the next class. Homework MUST be your own original work and will be collected in class on the dates noted. No homework will be accepted after the deadline date. All homework MUST be turned in to the instructor. Solutions will be available for copying at the Math and Science Learning Centers and on the Web-site after the graded homework papers are returned.
