Notes

Second-semester proficiency in a foreign language is required; normally this is fulfilled with high school language.
The physics department recommends that its majors take CHEM 151 and 152.
Phys 381 and 382 and Math 323 are writing-emphasis courses.
Use one of the Tier 2 GenEds to satisfy the diversity requirement.
