Somewhat Complete Curricula

  • How to become a GOOD Theoretical Physicist — Covers, in a logical order, all of these topics: primary mathematics, classical mechanics, optics, statistical mechanics & thermodynamics, electronics, electromagnetism, computational physics, quantum mechanics (non-relativistic), atoms & molecules, solid state physics, nuclear physics, plasma physics, advanced mathematics, special relativity, advanced quantum mechanics, phenomenology, general relativity, cosmology, astro-physics & astronomy, quantum field theory, supersymmetry & supergravity, astro particle physics, super string theory. Wow.

  • Susan J Fowler: So You Want To Learn Physics

    The undergraduate physics curriculum in every undergraduate physics program covers the following subjects (along with some electives in advanced topics), and usually in the following order:

    1. Introductory Mechanics
    2. Electrostatics
    3. Waves and Vibrations
    4. Modern Physics
    5. Classical Mechanics
    6. Electrodynamics
    7. Quantum Mechanics
    8. Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics
    9. Advanced Electives in Physics
  • The Feynman Lectures on Physics Volume I to III
