General Information
  • We have a minimal requirement of lab courses (4 units for Physics Stream and 3 units for Theoretical Physics Stream).
       If you wish to pick up more experience in experimental physics and/or learn more experimental skill,
       you may consider taking Special Experimental Projects.

  • Pass/Fail guideline:
       A student will fail a lab course if he/she is
       (a) absent in 3 lab sessions without compelling reason*, or
       (b) unable to submit 4 lab reports.
       For other cases, the teacher in charge of the course will decide pass/fail of a student.
       * There should be 7 (afternoon) lab sessions for 1-unit lab course. Make-up labs can be arranged during the regular term time.
