Department of Physics, College of Physical & Engineering Science.

A grade of 70% in the physics and mathematics courses of semesters 1 and 2 is normally required for admission to semester 3 of this program.

Since some of the required courses are not offered every semester, students entering Honours Theoretical Physics should plan their program in consultation with the Physics Department.

Specialized Honours

One biological science course from 17-115, 65-100, 92-102.

19-104 General Chemistry I

27-120 Introduction to Computing *

63-120 Calculus I

76-100 An Introduction to Mechanics

One biological science course from 17-115, 65-100, 92-102.

19-105 General Chemistry II

27-150 Introduction to Programming *

63-121 Calculus II

76-101 Fundamental Laws of Physics

*Students who have a strong background in computing, including programming experience, should consult with the Physics Department to determine if they should take 27-120 and 27-150.

Students who have taken physics courses other than those listed for semesters 1 and 2, may proceed to semester 3 with the permission of the Physics Department.

+The MPC2 courses provide another route into Semester 3. MPC2 students should consult the Program Counsellor concerning course selection for Semesters 1 and 2.
