The individual option plan is meant to provide the flexibility needed
for students to pursue interdisciplinary or unique plans of study. It
requires completion of the core requirements and 25 additional physics or
related credits above PHYS 260 approved by the student's advisor and
department head.. The plan of study should be coherent and challenging and
motivated toward a particular goal of study, not simply a collection of
desired courses. Examples of individual option plans in the past have
included ones geared toward biophysics, geophysics, and secondary school
education.
Notes:
- Most of the courses listed on the grid above are in the semester in
which they are offered (odd = fall, even = spring). For instance, PHYS
460 is only offered in the spring semester.
- The grid above is only one way in which this program may be
completed and there are other possibilities which include all these same
courses. Talk to you advisor if you have questions.
- If this is to be used for teaching licensure, it is important the
the requirements of the School of Education also be met. Furthermore,
such a plan should include courses in biology, geology, and organic and
inorganic chemistry.
- Because of the nature of this sequence, it is extremely important
that the student communicate with all parties involved to be sure of
course availability in future semesters and hidden prerequisites.
Nothing should be assumed or taken for granted.
