Minor

Students in a first degree programme other than Physics can opt for a Minor in Physics by taking a package of Physics courses. 
At most TWO of these courses may overlap with the compulsory courses of the major degree. The intent to  join the minor programme must be declared at the end of the second year. However, some of the courses leading to the minor may be taken in the second year itself.

  • Core courses

     PHY/ECE/INSTR/EEE F212 Electromagnetic Theory 3
     PHY F242 Quantum Mechanics 1 3
     PHY F312 Statistical Mechanics  3
