Notes
1. Students will be assumed to have studied at
least 20 credits from NCEA Level 3 Physics and achieved at least
14, or passed Bursary Physics or 124.100 or an acceptable alternative.
2. 14 credits achieved in NCEA Level 3 Mathematics
with Calculus is the acceptable school background to 160.101;
students should have studied at least 20 credits in NCEA Level
3 Mathematics with Calculus.
3. Or 124.111.
4. Internal students taking one or more of papers
160.203, 160.204, 160.211 will be required to attend five hours
of computer workshops on the use of mathematics packages.
5. A pass in 160.102 would be advantageous.
6. A pass in 160.211 would be advantageous.
7. Students intending to proceed to BSc(Hons)
in Mathematical Physics should also include 160.302 in their
course.
8. The Mathematical Physics major may not be combined
into a double major with Mathematics or Physics. |
