Physics

Below is a guide of courses you can take at various international universities and receive UI credit in your major.  In the first column is listed the host university course and in the second column the UI equivalent.  A “000” number indicates this course is treated as an elective course at UI.  “UD” indicates it is an upper division course and “LD” indicates it is a lower division course.  Credits are listed if they have already been posted by the Registrar’s Office on their website.  If not, credit awarded for equivalent courses should be the same as the credit offered on UI’s campus; credit for elective “000” courses should follow the formula 15 classroom contact hours = 1 UI credit. The information included on this page should be used as a guide only.  It is not a complete list of available courses or equivalent credits.  Always consult with the program or university to verify that course offerings you are interested in will be available during the term(s) you plan on studying abroad.
