McMurry University Vision for the Natural and Computational Sciences
The McMurry University Natural and Computational Sciences faculty believes that a basic appreciation
of science is an essential component of a well-rounded education. McMurry science programs are
designed to cooperatively build within every graduate the foundational knowledge, appropriate
skills, and hands-on experience necessary to succeed in the workplace, the classroom, graduate programs, or professional schools. The research-rich environment encourages faculty to develop
both individually and collaboratively, to implement innovative teaching methods, and to advance and
disseminate scientific knowledge.

Challenges in Teaching Physics
o the need to balance the depth and breadth in material coverage
o the need to provide active engagement with subject matter
o the need to integrate laboratory exercises with class content
o the need to account for various learning styles of diverse student audiences
