BA The minimum number of credits needed for graduation from the department is 128, including ‧ 72 required credits from either the physics track or the optoelectronic track ‧ 12 credits from general education (humanities and fine arts: 4 credits, natural sciences and technology 4 credits, social sciences 4 credits) ‧ 44 credits (minimum) from the elected courses in the Department of Physics ‧ 8 credits (minimum) from electives throughout the university at the student’s discretion MA The minimum number of credits needed for graduation from the graduate program is 30, including 6 credits for thesis writing. |
| Objectives of Curriculum Design |
|
The collective mandatory courses are designed to cultivate students’ fundamental knowledge on physics theory and experiment and to equip students with the ability to read scientific journals and give oral presentations. Specialized courses in the physics track focus on dynamics and statistics, while the optoelectronic track on optics and electronics. By taking both collective mandatory courses and specialized courses, undergraduate students can develop a comprehensive knowledge of physics. Other mandatory courses are designed to promote cultivate various abilities students will need after graduation. |
