All optics and optical engineering majors must complete a total of 16 credits* in humanities and/or social sciences. Three of these courses must constitute an approved cluster in humanities or social sciences and must be passed with a 2.0 average or better. See the Cluster Search Engine to review courses and descriptions.

Optics and optical engineering majors are required to take a total of 130 credits for their degree. You can see an example of what these requirements look like mapped out over four years by visiting our sample schedule page.

Optics and optical engineering students must also complete the following course to fulfill their upper level writing requirement:

Optical Engineeringjournal

Alternatively, optical engineering students will complete two senior design courses, providing them with practical experience in applying optical knowledge to work on real-world, company-sponsored, problems.

*CHEM 137 is preferred, but students use CHEM 131: Concepts, Systems, Practice I, or an AP score of 4 or 5 to satisfy this requirement

Students can think of the technical elective requirement as a “cluster.” The goal is to study an area that is of interest, but not part of the core requirements. Twelve technical elective credits are required, which is usually completed with three four credit courses.

During their last year optics students will take two senior thesis courses, which will provide them with practical experience in research and crafting of a thesis that will comprehensively report their findings.

Typically, transfer students seeking an optics degree spend three full years at University of Rochester (MCC 2+2 students excepted). Transfer students should email Cynthia Daher to review their academic history prior to transferring.

*A minor, or a second major, in a humanities or social science area will also satisfy the cluster and additional course requirement.

All students in the Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences are required to complete the primary writing requirements by taking WRTG 105 or its equivalent.
