Spring 2021 Physics Courses: In-Person, Remote, or Hybrid?
We are committed to providing a safe and engaging learning environment for our students, and will continue to adhere to hybrid model guidelines established by Carnegie Mellon for the spring 2021 semester. Here you will find information on which courses will be taught in which manner.
Please note the following:
-
We are striving to provide synchronous and in-person laboratory experiences for interested students where possible.
-
Safety measures may require that student enrollment in 33-340: Modern Physics Laboratory will be prioritized for seniors who require this course to meet graduation requirements.
