Minoring in Physics
The physics minor consists of the following:
- A minimum of 25 credits including Physics 111, 150, 250, 300 and other physics courses numbered above 300 not including 390 and 490. At least one elective must include a laboratory.
- Math 120, 121, 222.
- If you are entering a teaching field, you may select
Astronomy 311 as an elective. A minor in physics is certifiable for
teaching only when accompanied by a major in another science or a major
in mathematics.
- When you decide to minor in physics, register in the
department office to be assured of proper advising. To be accepted as a
minor you must have a minimum grade point average of 2.00 (2.75 to
student teach), regardless of a declaration of academic bankruptcy. The
department may grant exceptions. No more than one grade below C- in
physics courses numbered 300 or above may be applied to the minor.
