Note: *This map assumes student has MATH 113  placement in Mathematics and COMP 150  placement in Composition. Students with different placements must work with advisors to adjust the map.

Note: **Complete either: [PHYS 201 and PHYS 202] or [PHYS 217 and PHYS 218].  PHYS 217 and PHYS 218 are recommended by the department.

Note: This map is a suggested course sequence. Please consult your academic advisor for alternate sequencing.

Note: Course choices may affect the number of free electives needed. In addition to major and LAC requirements, complete enough free electives to reach at least 120 total credits, including a minimum of 36 upper-division (300- and 400-level) credits.

Note: Students must earn 30 credits by the end of Year 1 to be classified as a Sophomore, 60 credits by the end of Year 2 to be a Junior, and 90 credits by the end of Year 3 to be a Senior. To meet these thresholds, some students may need to take additional credits beyond the suggested course sequence.
