What's on Your Fall 2010 Science Schedule?

In summary, Joe is taking the following courses this upcoming semester: Physics 2 with lab, Gen Chem 2 with lab, Engineering Calc 2, Archeo Astronomy, and General Chemistry 1. He is also taking 20 hours of work per week and is hoping to have completed research with his calc professor by the fall.

Transferring into the junior year of a nuclear engineering program from a community college...

Radiation Interaction I
Introduction to Nuclear and Radiological Engineering
Statics
Computer Programming and Lab (Fortran)
Nuclear Engineering Analysis I

It's only 15 credits but some of these things look pretty crazy and I'm not too sure what to expect from any of these classes...

What college are you transferring into?

I'm transferring into University of Tennessee at Knoxville and I still have a LOT of prereqs to finish. (Yet I can still take junior level classes next semester)

Looks like a few classes I am taking.

General Chemistry
Computer Methods in Engineering Problem Solving
Physics for Engineers I
Introduction to Nuclear and Radiological Engineering
Circuits and Electro Mechanical Components
Thermodynamics

I'm not exactly sure what I am taking, but this is roughly what I am going to.
 
  • #38
Abstract Algebra
Real Analysis
C Programming and Unix
Machine Organization and Assembly Language
Chinese (third semester)
Physics (first semester, with lab)
 
  • #39
Linear Algebra
Introduction to the Concepts of Mathematics
Theoretical Mechanics I
Electricity and Magnetism I
Optics
maybe Intro to Computer Science as well, but I'm afraid that I might lack time to study for mechanics and e and m if I increase my class load any more. I'm not quite sure whether I should go for an area of emphasis in computational physics or not; now is the time I would have to start taking computer science classes in order to be able to finish the area of emphasis.

This summer I've got calc III and differential equations.

My Fall 2010 schedule is looking like:

I'm in fourth year undergrad

Quantum Mechanics II - Griffiths (probably although we used Shankar for QM I so we could still be using that text)
EM Theory - Griffiths
Mechanics - Analytical Mechanics by Fowles
Topology - ?

Doesn't beat last fall where I was taking QM I, Intro to GR, Subatomic Physics (we covered all of Griffiths intro to elementary particles text except for the last chapter), statistical mechanics (we used bowley) and scientific computing (c and c++). I wanted to shoot myself and then I threw on some philosophy course in order to finish the written requirement lol.
