| * | Students who do not have AP credit for Calclus I should see the
director of undergraduate studies for advising on an alternate schedule
|
| ** | Physics 116 Introductory Astronomy, with Lab is a
descriptive course intended for non- science majors. Although it
does not count toward the major, it is recommended for Physics/Astronomy
BS students with no background in astronomical observation. |
Important: |
|
| • | B.S. Physics/Astronomy majors must complete 1 PHYSICS
ELECTIVE at their own convenience. The elective could be
a senior Honors thesis or any physics course at or above the 200-level. |
| • | All physics courses are offered
only once a year—either in the Fall or Spring semester—with
these exceptions: Physics 115 and 116 are offered both
Fall and Spring semesters. Physics 311S and 312S are offered
in the Spring in alternate years. |
