* Undergraduate solid state (354/654) and grad solid state (752) should be in sequence. This sequence would be best for grad students in solid state. We’ll teach 354/654 in the Fall and 752 the following Spring.
** Instead of being offered in Fall 2022, 352/652 Optics will also be offered Spring 2023.
