Alternative Physics Courses

This page provides a list of physics courses that can be taken as alternative courses towards an Engineering Physics or Arts & Sciences Physics degree.

Examples of when these courses can be used as a substitution:
  • If an Engineering Physics student takes 594 Quantum Mechanics instead of Physics 631, that student will then need to replace 632 and 633 with an alternative course.
  • A student misses a required course due to study abroad, co-op, or internship conflicts and needs to make up the credit.

    • All substitutions must be approved by Dr. Hughes or Lindsey Perry
