Physics Minor Requirements

The minor in physics consists of seven courses, some of which have prerequisites. They are PHY 151, 241, 251, 261, and three elective physics courses at the 300 level or greater (not PHY 300 or 400). One of these electives must be laboratory-based (PHY 356, 362, or a course approved by the department).

All physics majors and minors must take all physics and cognate courses at Spelman College unless it is pre-approved by the chair of the physics department. Students in the dual-degree engineering program may substitute one engineering course from an approved list for one of the electives.
