Physics Course Rotation
Physics courses are offered at least once in any two year period. Required courses may be offered more often. Thus every undergraduate will be able to take the upper level physics courses during their junior and senior years and graduate students will be able to take graduate courses during a two year MS program or in the first two years of their PhD studies.
The course rotation shown here repeats in a two year cycle. There may be adjustments based on student needs and other factors. Please consult your adviser or the head of the department for any updates.
