Note: First-year students interested in taking physics courses and perhaps majoring in physics, chemistry, or chemical physics should consult a member of the physics program early in their first year for proper placement in either PHY 110 or PHY 210. Other students registering for 100-or 200-level physics courses should do likewise.
