    Schools Physics Grad School for Non-Physics Majors: Schools & Options

    Well, from looking at the classes required for the B.S. physics at my school, it looks like it covers the core four very well, the B.A. tract not so well. I am going to talk to a advisor as soon as possible, and see what he/she says.

    Schools Physics Grad School for Non-Physics Majors: Schools & Options

    I see, I suppose the best course of action would be to just major in physics. My problem right now is just deciding which course I will decide to take. My ideal end goal would be to end up in research, and if it takes a couple extra years for a physics degree, then so be it, we'll see though. I...

    Schools Physics Grad School for Non-Physics Majors: Schools & Options

    Could you perhaps be more specific? The classes I am required to take just for my chem degree is one year of calc based general physics, multivariable calc, linear algebra, and also physical chemistry among many other chemistry classes. What physics classes would you say are absolutely...

    Schools Physics Grad School for Non-Physics Majors: Schools & Options

    I could double major and I have thought about doing that or even minoring in physics, but I don't feel the minor goes deep enough in the harder physics classes like quantum. I might just switch my major, even though it will take me somewhat longer to finish my B.S. degree.

    Schools Physics Grad School for Non-Physics Majors: Schools & Options

    I see what you're saying, I think maybe I phrased it wrong. Switching my major or adding a lot of extra physics classes would delay me somewhat, versus just continuing with classes I am supposed to take. I am considering switching my major to physics and using the chemistry classes I've taken to...

    Schools Physics Grad School for Non-Physics Majors: Schools & Options

    Hello all, I am currently an undergraduate studying chemistry with a question regarding physics graduate school. I know many threads have been started on whether or not one can get into a physics grad program and I have come to the conclusion that it is possible, so I won't ask that question. My...

    Photons and Space-Time Expansion

    Thank you all for the answers, and thank you mgkii for the video! I think the video really helped! Pretty cool stuff! :D

    Photons and Space-Time Expansion

    Hello all! I apologize if this question has been asked already, anyways I have a conceptual question, let me see if I can explain it properly. So we know that the universe is expanding at a rapid rate, very rapid in fact, space and time itself is expanding; and we also know the maximum speed...

    What Do Undergrad Chemistry Students Think About General Physics?

    Hello everyone! I am 23 and an undergrad Chemistry student in California, United States. I am currently taking general physics, and have had a lot of fun with it so far, although some days I feel I have a love-hate relationship with physics, ha! :) Anyways, glad to be here, and hope to meet you all.
