SIUE's Introductory Physics Laboratories Physics 112, 131A&B, 151L&152L Facility and Equipment Classroom Workstation iMac  Welcome to the SIUE's Physics Department Introductory Laboratory web site. Our department has two (2) introductory laboratory classrooms that have twelve (12) workstations each that can accommedate two (2) students per station. Each workstation has its own 17" iMac computer interfaced with a PASCO 750 ScienceWorkshop. Each iMac is wirelessly networked to two (2) laser printers. The computer system is used for data acquisition, data analysis and printing.
