Sent on behalf of Sam Beals, Department of Physics and Astronomy
  • Starting in Fall 2022, the organization and teaching of PHYS 211 and PHYS 211L will be different.
  • These courses will be presented in an entirely new format called the Lecture/Studio model of teaching.
  • Due to the highly integrated nature of this style of teaching, both the lecture and studio sections (PHYS 211 + PHYS 211L) must be taken during the same semester.
  • Students who have already taken a piece of the course and need credit for the other part are encouraged to contact the Department of Physics and Astronomy for guidance.
  • See attached flyer.
