Why study Physics abroad?
"The principles of physics are the same everywhere on the planet, so why not enrich your life by studying them abroad for awhile, perhaps in a country that produced a giant of physics such as Newton (England), Heisenberg (Germany), Kelvin (Scotland), or Alfen (Sweden)? Here are a variety of strategies that can further your physics goals while learning about and experiencing the culture of another country."

Physics (pdf)Making EAP Fit
To demonstrate how EAP can fit into your UCI experience, we have created examples of strategies to help you conceptualize planning for study abroad. Below are possible strategies for students who are attempting to fulfill degree requirements abroad.
Strategies for Physics Majors
| Note: These are only a few strategies that demonstrate how a student can study abroad and graduate within 4 years. There are many EAP programs that can be substituted into the same strategies. DO NOT LET THESE EXAMPLES LIMIT YOU. Please consult the EAP Program Search for more options. | |
| Semester abroad taking "coherently related" physics courses | |
| Year abroad taking upper division physics courses | |
| Semester abroad taking advanced lower division courses | |
