Space Physics
Students for the M.Sc. degree will have at least 2 or all 3 of their elective courses taken from their Departmental courses. One of their elective courses may be taken from another Department of the Institute.
The Mathematics courses, which include SSE 812, 815 and 822 may be handled at AUST under a possibly different course code and/or title. SSE 851 will also be handled with a different course code at AUST.
