Minor
Physics students take 6 courses (18 credits) in math and science to complete the requirments of the minor. Three of those six courses can double-count towards both a Physics minor and another major or minor.
A special major in Physics, developed in consultation with the department, is possible for students who complete additional course requirements.
Required courses for Minor:
PHY 201 General Physics I
PHY 202 General Physics II
PHY 480 Modern Physics
Students must also complete three of the following eight courses (no more than two of the three can be from the mathematics offerings):
CHE 311 Physical Chemisty I
CHE 312 Physical Chemistry II
PHY 112 Introdution to Astronomy (with a Special Project)
PHY 213 Introduction to Engineering
PHY 275 Applied Optics
PHY 491-492 Independent Study in Physics
MAT 331 Calculus of Vector Functions
MAT 351 Modern Algebra I
MAT 355 Differential Equations
