- Download here the list of course options for Computational Methods of Applied Physics and Experimental Methods of Applied Physics.
 - During your first eight quarters, when you are not taking at least three courses (i.e. during summers and your second year), you will add 1-3 units of APP PHYS 590 to reach full-time registration.
 - Third year and beyond, students should register for TGS 500: Advanced Doctoral Studies.
 - Funded students should always be registered full-time (3-4 units or TGS 500).
