Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Programs

Program Requirements


This multidisciplinary minor is open to students majoring in physics or in other disciplines. To complete this minor, a student must take a minimum of 16 credits of course work in this field. These courses must include four credits each of ASTR 4510 and ISCI 4500, and two semesters of the one-credit ISCI 4510. Two additional courses outside the major field of study must also be selected from the following:

  • BCBP 4860 - Protein and Nucleic Acid Structure

Additional Information


The requirement that two selected courses must be outside the major is reduced to one in the case of a double major, provided that both majors are in the primary relevant areas of study (i.e., biology, chemistry, geology, and physics).
