You must attend the weekly lecture, and have at least two free afternoons each week to spend in lab. See lab staff for more information. Prerequisites: Physics 5A, 5B, 5C or 7A, 7B, 7C or consent of the instructor.
Physics 111A seats are reserved for Physics Majors. If you are a Physics Major, you may request enrollment here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe7sKS0aRRC0n-FUlJDfP-s8N4Hz26sEC8kmwYmQF1mNnwLmQ/viewform
Note that we'll prioritize physics majors with S25 EGT for Physics 111A and physics majors with F24 EGT for Physics 111B. We'll automatically enroll these students in June and will email them once we do. All other students will be placed on a secondary waitlist and won't be enrolled until a week before the start of the semester, space permitting. show less
