Completion of the California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC).\n2.  A minimum of 18 semester units in a major or area of emphasis as determined by the community college district.\n3.  Obtainment of an overall minimum grade point average of 2.0.\n4.  Minimum grade of C (or P grade if taken on a pass/no pass basis) for each course in the major.\n\nThe following Allan Hancock College graduation requirements will not be required: Health and Wellness, Multicultural Gender Studies and Allan Hancock College General Education.\n\n**The graduate of the Associate in Science for Transfer in Physics will:**\n\n1.  Demonstrate knowledge of the fundamental laws of physics and physical terminology.\n2.  Apply physical principles to solve a variety of simple problems.\n3.  Demonstrate the proper use of physical apparatus for testing and observing physical theories.\n4.  Write scientific reports on a given experiment indicating the significance of the experiment and the degree to which the results verify a principle or law.\n5.  Analyze complex problems to identify single principle components and synthesize from multiple concepts."
