Schedule of Upper Level Courses
The upper-level physics courses are typically offered on either a 2-semester or 4-semester rotation. The following is a preliminary list of what courses will be offered each semester. Note that the Variable Stars course and the Advanced Physics Lab are offered each semester, as needed.
NOTE THAT THIS IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE. Check with Dr. Luttermoser, Dr. Giroux, or Dr.
Smith for any changes.
