Students may take a single major in Physics or a combined major with Biological Sciences , Chemistry , Computer Science or Mathematics. The core of the program is designed to provide an understanding of the principles and fundamental interactions of classical and quantum physics as well as many applications in technology and everyday life. It is possible for non-Physics degree students to take advanced courses, provided they have the physics and mathematics required in the year 1 Physics program. An experimental physics path of PHYS 2P30 and 3P92 or a modern physics path of PHYS 2P50 and 3P91 are possible. The Physics Co-op program combines academic and work terms over a four and one-half year period. Students spend two years in an academic setting, where they acquire the necessary background prior to taking the first work placement. In addition to the current fees for c
