The College Physics course, focusing on basic physics, is a compulsory fundamental course for science and engineering majors in institutions of higher education. It covers mechanics, thermodynamics, vibration and wave, electromagnetism, optics, relativity, quantum mechanics and other physics-related knowledge. The basic concepts, ideas, theories and methods taught in the course are the main components of students' scientific literacy. It helps students systematically lay a necessary physical foundation, cultivate a scientific worldview, enhance their ability to analyze and solve problems, and foster their spirit of exploration and sense of innovation. The College Physics course of Liaoning Technical University has been successively rated as a Liaoning Provincial "Curriculum Ideology and Politics" Model Course and a National First-Class Undergraduate Course.
