Course Recommendations

  1. Math 322 and Math 340 are additional useful courses beyond the required mathematics courses and may be of particular interest for students interested in graduate study.

  2. The curriculum requires Stat 224, but you may want to take a more challenging course, Stat 301, instead; if so, a substitution can be requested from your advisor. A course in Statistics such as Stat 311 or Stat 431 is very desirable for students interested in reactor safety and operation. Stat 311 or Stat 431 is a prerequisite for NE (NEEP) 574. Students may request to substitute Stat 224 with Stat 311 or Stat 431.

  3. Phys 322 is recommended for students interested in plasma physics, fusion, or applied superconductivity. It is a prerequisite for NE (NEEP) 525.

  4. Phys 311, a more advanced course in dynamics, which may be used to replace EMA 202. Students planning to enter graduate school, especially in the areas of plasmas, fusion, or radiation damage should take Phys 311.

  5. Phys 623: Electronic Aids to Measurement is recommended for students in the Radiation Sciences track.
