This sample plan illustrates an Option II physics major, which allows more flexibility in taking courses outside physics and math. Many physics majors choose to minor in Math to make use of the required supporting courses.

This academic plan is an example of how students might choose to fulfill program requirements within a period of four years. After consulting with their advisors students may make other course choices which would meet the program requirements and be more suitable for them.
