Curriculum: |
|
The minor in Astronomy requires eighteen (18) hours in
Astronomy (ASTR) courses, of which six (6) hours must be advanced. |
| |
|
Notes: |
-
The natural science core requirements for a major
(or another minor) must be satisfied by a course sequence other than
ASTR 1401/1402 (for example: PSCI 1421/1422, GEOL 1401,1402, PHYS
1401/1402, or PHYS 2401/2402).
-
It is recommended that students fulfill their
mathematics core curriculum requirements for their major before
taking ASTR 2301 (by taking, for example: MATH 1340 or MATH 1450).
-
It is recommended that students take the series PHYS
2401/2402 as their natural science core requirements for their major
before taking ASTR 3302.
-
It is recommended that students fulfill their
computer literacy core requirements for their major before taking
ASTR 3303 (by taking, for example: CSCI 1380).
