Virtual Advising

feedback

This form can be used to check the progress you've made towards your degree. When you have completed the form you will get advice based on the selections you've made and a summary will be sent to you and to me - once I've reviewed your entries I'll remove your advising hold. You can always follow up with me in person as well. In some cases I will require a follow up appointment before removing the advising hold.

I have taken "Phys 100W" or "Phys 220e"

There are currently three degrees awarded by the department. Which are you planning to get?

Students must attend at least 75% of the department seminars in one semester. Have you done this (or are you currently doing so)?

Yes

You have to take 30 units (typically 5 required physics class, a physics writing class, 3-6 units of research, and 2-3 electives) . Of the required classes which (if any) have you taken so far?

100W Writing
205 Advanced Dynamics
210 Electromagnetic Theory
230 Methods in Mathematical Physics
