Degrees in Physics at the Ohio State University

Physics curriculae are highly dependent on the order in which courses are taken. To help you plan, below are examples of 4-year class schedules for Option A and Option F. Note: A minimum of 181 total hours is required for graduation in the College of Arts and Sciences for students entering after AU07. The total required hours are 191 for students entering before AU07. If the physics and math plus electives plus GEC do not add up to 181 (191 for prior to AU07) hours, the difference should be made up with additional free electives. The number of hours in the core program, GEC, and remaining free electives are indicated below each sample 4-year class schedule.
