Declaring a Major

Before you you declare a Physics major, advisors like to see that you are prepared for it by taking the prerequisites to the major. Please see the details below before you decide to declare. Once you have taken the prerequisites, you can declare either the B.S. Physics Concentration or the Interdisciplinary Physics Concentration (B.S. or B.A.) during a Physics Advising Appointment.
