Transfer Classes
The purpose of transfer is to facilitate the smooth transition of college course work taken at one college institution to another college for the benefit of the individual student. These courses are generally intended to move the student towards a baccalaureate degree. Bellingham Technical College provides educational course work and degree programs which “transfer” to upper-division institutions, both public and private. The notion of transfer is grounded in the peer-based accreditation status of the participating colleges in supporting student mobility of course work between and among the colleges.
**Note: If a Washington State Community or Technical College offers a similar course with an ampersand ("&") in the course prefix, it is easily transferable among CTC colleges. Students should check with 4-year colleges for acceptance/non-acceptance when transferring individual CTC courses.

PHYS& 114 General Physics I w/lab 5 CR An algebra-based introduction to classical mechanics and problem-solving in physics, designed for students majoring in technically oriented fields that do not require a calculus-oriented approach. Topics include kinematical description of motion, forces and Newton's Law, gravity, momentum and energy. Emphasis will be placed on problem solving, mathematical reasoning, computer-aided laboratory investigations, and the scientific method.
Prerequisite:
MATH& 142 with a C or higherPHYS& 221 Engineering Physics I w/Lab 5 CR PHYS& 221 is the first in a three-course calculus-based survey of physics for engineering pathways. The course introduces the fundamental principles of mechanics: kinematics, momentum and energy conservation laws, physical interactions, force, work rotation, torque and gravity. Conceptual development and problem solving have equal emphasis. Laboratory work includes experimental methods, data analysis, and prepares students for coursework in engineering.
