Students are required to take 10 core courses (including 2 Physics courses), one 2-quarter research project during the 2nd year and at least 3 special topics courses. You must receive a grade of B or better in all courses. See the course description page for details. Some classes are offered in alternating years so there are two possible programs for incoming graduate students. *At least one Special Topic is required each year and a total of three is required overall. Additionally, there is a Journal Club which (along with Astro 279 Colloquium) should be attended every quarter. • Entering Fall Quarter Odd Years: Year 1 Year 2 Quarter 1: Astro 270 Fundamentals I (Fluids & Dynamics) Astro 276 Instrumentation & Observational Tech.
