Syllabus

The document outlines the structure of the first four semesters for students pursuing a Physics or Biology major. For both majors, the first two years (four semesters) consist of foundational courses in subjects like biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, and humanities. The third and fourth years then focus on more advanced major-specific courses, as well as electives and laboratory work. The final year involves a major research project for both Physics and Biology students, aimed at accumulating the minimum 175 credits needed to qualify for a BS-MS degree.
