Physics is the most fundamental of the natural sciences, and mathematics is the language of physics. This program develops, in parallel, experience with the central theoretical frame-works of physics and facility with the mathematical methods which form the foundation and tools of physics.
Notes
• There is no minor in Mathematical Physics.
• There is no General B.Sc. in Mathematical Physics.
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE PROGRAM IN MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS
• See Degree Requirements for requirements which apply to all undergraduate degree programs.
• The Honours program in Mathematical Physics is a sequence of courses offered by the Mathematics Department and the Department of Physics & Astronomy that compose an integrated whole. It is not available as a joint-major degree.
• For information on individual courses see calendar entries for Mathematics and Physics & Astronomy.
