Please Note
Effective Fall 2022, we will exclusively accept the Physics 4 series lecture courses as pre-reqs for all core physics courses (the Physics 2 series lecture courses will no longer be accepted as pre-reqs for courses in the PHYS 4, 100, 105, 110, 120, 130, and 140 series). This policy will apply to every student seeking to enroll, not just physics majors, no matter the term/year when they entered at UCSD. WebReg and the Schedule of Classes show the pre-reqs for each physics course offered in Fall 2022. The "FALL Update" of the Physics Courses section of the 2022-23 UCSD General Catalog will display prerequisites effective starting in FA22.
