Minor in Physics and Applied Physics
Disclaimer: The curriculum is still subject to minor revisions. Please check back regularly to read the most updated curriculum.
Two minors are offered to students at NTU whose major is neither Physics nor Applied Physics. Students are required to fulfill a minimum of 15 AUs of PAP courses.
S/U Option does not apply to Courses which are tied to Second Major programmes, Minor programmes and Concentrations in Physics and Applied Physics programme.
