A concentration plan in physics is developed in consultation with and must be approved by the concentration advisor. It is intended that the flexibility allowed by this program should be used in a well thought out and effective way. Examples of possible programs of study include Statistics, Astrophysics, Philosophy, Cosmology, Economics and Finance, Quantum Computing, Biology, Chemical Physics, Nanotechnology, Medical Physics, Environmental Physics, Global Change, Geophysics, Mathematical Physics, Science Writing, Science Policy, Physics of Technology, Applied Physics, Computational Physics, Physics Education, or Industrial Physics. Mathematics through MATH 216 (or the equivalent); PHYSICS 140/141 and 240/241 (or PHYSICS 125/136 and 126/236, or PHYSICS 135/136 and 235/236, or PHYSICS 160/161 and 260/261); and PHYSICS 340/341 and PHYSICS 351. The courses selected should form a coherent program of study. PHYSICS 235 - Phy Life Sciences II U of M . Possible course selections in each of these areas can be viewed at: www.lsa.umich.edu/physics/resources/student. Concentration Program. Students wishing to complete an Honors senior thesis with a faculty member outside the Physics Department must meet with a concentration advisor for prior approval. At least 24 credits, including at least 9 in PHYSICS courses numbered 390 and above. Student interested in concentrating in physics should have an understanding of mathematics through differential equations. Requirements for the Major. (587 Documents), PHYSICS 240 - E&M
Physics 390, 401, 405, 406, and 453 must be completed with a minimum grade of a C- in each course and a cumulative average of C or higher. The Physics Department has abundant facilities for instruction in physics and offers a wide variety of experimental and theoretical research programs open to undergraduate and graduate students. A concentration plan must include: PHYSICS 390+. Two additional Physics courses at the 400 level*.
