University of Minnesota

Department of Astronomy

Basic Astronomy Degree Requirements

There is only one basic degree program in Astrophysics in IT, but almost all career paths benefit from additional course work specific to that path. In many cases, such as secondary education, additional work is required for entrance into the post-baccalaureate programs in the state and elsewhere. All Astrophysics majors must meet the University wide Liberal Arts requirements by graduation. IT also has a composition requirement.
