No courses elected NRO can be counted towards the correlate sequence. All physics correlate sequences must be approved by the correlate advisor.
Physics Correlate with Teaching Emphasis:
Students interested in the Physics courses needed for teaching high school physics after Vassar may complete the following coursework above the introductory level (PHYS 113 /PHYS 114 or equivalent). PHYS 200 , PHYS 210 , PHYS 298 - Lab Apprenticeship (1/2 unit), PHYS 298 - Lab Development (1/2 unit), and PHYS 399 - Senior Independent Work on physics education and curriculum development.
Recommended courses in Physics/Astronomy are ASTR 220 , PHYS 240 , and PHYS 202 /PHYS 203 . Students interested in certification for Physics teaching should consult with the Education Department. Additional recommended courses in Education are EDUC 235 and EDUC 392 . Consult Cindy Schwarz.
