Which college offer Light and modern physics in summer?

In summary, Light and Modern Physics is a branch of physics that focuses on the study of light and its properties, as well as the fundamental principles of modern physics such as quantum mechanics and relativity. Studying Light and Modern Physics is important for understanding the fundamental nature of light and its role in the universe, and for developing new technologies and applications. The availability of Light and Modern Physics courses in the summer may vary depending on the college and year, with some colleges such as MIT, Stanford University, and the University of California-Berkeley offering them in the past. The prerequisites for taking these courses may vary, but generally a strong background in calculus and introductory physics courses is required. Non-science majors can also take Light and Modern Physics courses

Hello, I'm looking for a college that offers Physics 4C(or equivalent classes) in this coming summer in CA or nearby states. I did a lot of research, but i didn't find anyone offers it in summer. I have to take it before the fall semester starts. Here is the course description

Physics 4C Light and Modern Physics(3 units)
Maxwell's Equations, geometrical optics; electromagnetic radiation; physical optics;introduction to special relativity; quantum physics; and the physics of atoms, nuclei and the solid state.
