Physics students can choose their free electives in such a way as to obtain a minor or a double major.
It is most common for students to minor or double majors in Math, Computer Science, Computational Sciences, or even follow a Physics Premedical Track. Below we present one possible plan for each of the above-mentioned tracks. Note that these are only exemplary schedules and there exist other options for course distributions:
