Astronomy Minor

The astronomy minor has been developed for students who have interests in astronomy beyond the introductory level. The course of study includes introductory physics, introductory astronomy, observational astronomy and astrophysics. A student majoring in physics may minor in astronomy, but courses that are applied to the minor cannot be applied to the major at the same time unless the student has a second minor from a different department.

All minor programs must be approved on the degree plan by the chair of the department.
