Double Majors and Minors

Please see this post about equivalent courses

Withdrawn courses and Graduation

In order to be able to graduate, you can not have withdrawn courses in your curriculum. All have to be replaced by equivalent courses from your current major. Replacements from other majors are not accepted. 

PHYS 200

PHYS 200 is a must course for PHYS students, being "fresh 2nd year students" (successful from 1st year physics courses and they are on their 3rd semester). See https://phys200.skyerli.org

It is considered equivalent to (a course?) in CENG, however nothing from CENG is considered equivalent to PHYS 200.  Waiting for clarification.

If you think you have taken a course equivalent to PHYS 200 instructors, they will consider their case .

PHYS 203

PHYS203 is considered equivalent to  EE201+EE213 or EE281+EE211 together.

PHYS 213

• If you are doing double major/minor in Physics: It is equivalent to PHYS202, and you can take PHYS300 if you have taken PHYS213
• If your major is in Physics, and maybe doing a double major/minor elsewhere: You have to take PHYS202, there are no alternatives.

MATH 219

MATH219 is considered equivalent to PHYS209 only if you are doing a double major or minor in physics. If your major is in physics, even if you are doing a double major/minor. You have to take PHYS209

ENG 311

If you have already taken ENG211 in your major, but it does not automatically appear in your double major program in physics, you'll need to fill a petition form to Physics department asking ENG211 to be added to your Physics curriculum AND ENG311 section xx. to be added to your registered courses list. Then you need to contact your ENG311 section teacher and ask to join the section (the section teacher will need to sign the document)

The form as of 01/03/2023 is here.

If you are not in Ankara yet, you can send it to physics department via e-mail, using your METU mail.

Equivalence of Physics courses to courses in your Major program 

This is rarely a thing. Most Major programs will not accept courses taken from Double Major/Minor courses as a replacement for the courses in their curriculum. So, try to find equivalent courses in your Major, which can replace your double major/minor courses to optimize your course workload. 

Replacing a replaced course

The course that will replace a course for which a passing a grade was earned (DD or above) must be taken within the following three consecutive semesters. When you replace the course, the term you have taken it is considered as the first time you took the course. So, if you took a course in 3rd semester, replaced it in 5th semester, you can not replace it on 7th semester, since you are trying to replace a course 4 semesters before, not 2!
