Students in Engineering Honors can take Physics 1260 and 1261 in place of 1250 and 1251.

*If the honors sequence of E&M and Quantum are not taken, students can substitute Physics 5501H and 5401H with other physics courses at the 2000 level or above. See a physics advisor for details.

**or Physics 6810 (Computational Physics) or Physics 3201H (Holography)

Courses in RED are only offered once per year
Courses in BLUE can only be scheduled by contacting Robin Wyatt at wyatt.60@osu.edu
