Students will be expected to be available to meet with their instructors at the designated days and times listed for the courses in Self-Service Carolina.
The following courses will be offered in Summer 2020:
First 6-Week Summer Session (May 11, 2020 to June 18, 2020):
- PHYS 201 (General Physics I)
- PHYS 201L (General Physics I Laboratory)
- PHYS 211 (Essentials of Physics I)
- PHYS 211L (Essentials of Physics I Laboratory)
Second 6-Week Summer Session (June 22, 2020 to July 30, 2020):
- PHYS 202 (General Physics II)
- PHYS 202L (General Physics II Laboratory)
