Requirements for a Minor in Physics

Students may elect a minor program in Physics by completing a total of 20 credits in the Department. The suggested course sequence is as follows:

University Physics I, II, and Lab  (8)
Classical Mechanics I (4)
Modern Physics I (4)
Math Methods I (4)

Most of these courses have substantial mathematics prerequisites (Calculus I, II, Multivariable Calculus), so that it would not be possible for a non-science major to minor in Physics.
