Undergraduate
- Major Declaration
a. Major Declaration Period: June 10th or December 10th
b. Major Declaration Procedure: Online application within the period as announced in the major declaration notice each semester. ※Through the Integrated Information System (ZEUS) under ‘Academics – Major Declaration’
c. Major Quota: Operated without a limit on the number of students per major, respecting the autonomy of major selection.
※ The Department of Physics and Photon Science holds an annual Physics Major Information Session to assist enrolled students with their physics major declaration and graduate career path choices.
