Physics 90 is designed as a preparatory access course for students who were unable to access, or need to review, 30-level physics and physical science curricula. Content focuses on core concepts, terminology, problem-solving strategies, and laboratory skills foundational to be successful in post-secondary physics and related degree paths (e.g. science, engineering, mathematics, health sciences).

Prerequisite(s): Grade 12 Diploma or equivalent
Note: Physics 90 fulfills prerequisite requirements for PHYS 115, though Physics 90 is not directly equivalent to Physics 30. Students who complete PHYS 90 earn 3 non-degree-level credit units. This course does not contribute to the course credit unit requirements for a university degree.
