[QUOTE="Pallatinus, post: 5737794, member: 597624"] I'm currently a math undergrad, and I find that I love both, Math and Physics, and I want to study Mathematical Physics in grad school, but now I've to decide which path should I follow, next year [B]I could change my degree to physics[/B] (my UNI physics department is much better structured and renowned than the math department), then take a lot of math courses, [B]or I should stay in math[/B] and take physics courses. 1. If I choose the first option which math courses should I take? 2. If I choose the second one, which physics courses are "more important"? What courses are more important to "complement" each option? (1 and 2) A list of the most important courses available. Math: Algebra 1 & 2 Real Analysis Analysis in R^n Topology ODE PDE Fourier Analysis Functional Analysis Physics: Electromagnetism 1 & 2 State of Matter 1 & 2 Classical Mechanics 1 & 2 Thermodynamics Solid-State Physics 1 & 2 Optics Computational Physics General Relativity Statistical Mechanics Quantum Mechanics 1 & 2 [/QUOTE]
