Where Can I Take Physics 4C in Summer in CA or Nearby States?

In summary, the individual is looking for a college in California or nearby states that offers a calculus-based Physics 4C course during the summer. They have not been able to find any colleges offering this course during the summer and need to take it before the fall semester. The course description includes topics such as Maxwell's Equations, optics, special relativity, and quantum physics. The individual mentions that UCSD offers two separate courses, Phys 2c and Phys 2d, which cover some of the topics in Physics 4C.

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

Has to be calculus based

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.

please let know asap.

UCSD Phys 2c: Waves, optics, thermodynamics, weeks 1-5
UCSD Phys 2d: Modern Physics, weeks 6-10.

Two separate courses, both offered I believe.
 

1. What are the benefits of taking a summer class?

There are many benefits to taking a summer class! Some of the most common reasons include: catching up on credits, getting ahead in coursework, exploring new subjects, and staying academically engaged during the summer break.

2. How do I find a summer class that fits my schedule and interests?

You can start by checking with your school or university to see what summer classes they offer. You can also search online for summer programs and courses, and consider reaching out to professors or academic advisors for recommendations. Make sure to also consider your own interests and goals when choosing a summer class.

4. Are summer classes more or less rigorous than regular semester courses?

This can vary depending on the specific summer class and program. Some summer classes may be more condensed and cover the same material as a regular semester course, while others may be more focused on experiential learning or have a different pace. It's important to research the specific summer class and program to understand the level of rigor.

5. Are summer classes only for students in high school or college?

No, summer classes are available for students of all ages and academic levels. Many universities offer summer classes for both undergraduate and graduate students, while there are also summer programs and courses available for high school students and even younger learners. It's never too early or too late to take a summer class!
