This is a dual-degree program, providing a bachelor of arts (B.A.) or a bachelor of science (B.S.) degree in physics and a B.S. in an engineering major.
In addition to the courses taken in one of the four-year engineering programs, the following courses are required for the B.A. in physics: 01:750:361, 385-386, either 305 or 351, one advanced laboratory (343 or 387 or 389), and any three additional 300- or 400-level physics courses, excluding the 490 level. Students who desire a B.S. in physics should consult a departmental adviser.
The student also must satisfy the graduation (or distribution) requirement of the School of Arts and Sciences. All courses used for the B.A. degree also may be used for the engineering B.S. degree, where appropriate, without taking replacement credits.
