A minor program is available in physics. The minor program seeks to develop the student's knowledge concerning the fundamental laws of the universe: the structure of matter, the nature of energy, and the interaction of matter and energy. The minor program serves to meet the requirements of pre-professional health programs, the computer science program, and other programs at the University requiring or suggesting courses in the discipline of physics. The two courses in physical science are offered for general studies degree requirements and have no prerequisites.

To minor in physics, a student must complete:
PHYS 1401General Physics
PHYS 1402General Physics
PHYS 3301Analytical Mechanics
PHYS 3302Vector Analysis
PHYS 3303Modern Physics
PHYS 3401Electronics

Students should pay close attention to the mathematics prerequisites for the physics course(s). Students who plan to complete all 21 semester hours in physics must complete the following courses:
MATH 1405Calculus and Analytic Geometry I
MATH 1406Calculus and Analytic Geometry II
MATH 2309Introduction to Linear Algebra
MATH 2407Calculus and Analytic Geometry III

Recommended:
MATH 3305Differential Equations
