How Physics B Counts in Different Curricula

Physics B is a required course in some curricula, while in others it is one option within a required choice group. Its status depends on the academic year, campus, faculty, and programme.

Electrical Engineering: required first-year course

For the 2026 curriculum of the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering in the Faculty of Engineering at Tokyo Senju Campus, Physics B is a required first-year course. It is a two-credit lecture offered in the second semester.

Physics course track: required subject

For the 2025 science-oriented study model at Saitama Hatoyama Campus, students who wish to follow the physics course must take Physics A, Physics B, and Physics Mathematics I.

Information and Communications Engineering: one course from four

In the 2026 curriculum of the Department of Information and Communications Engineering in the Faculty of Engineering at Tokyo Senju Campus, students must earn the requirement by completing one course from Basic Physics, Physics A, Physics B, or Physics C. Physics B is one of the selectable courses in this required choice group.

Design Engineering: part of a required choice group

In the 2026 curriculum of the Department of Design Engineering in the Faculty of System Design Engineering at Tokyo Senju Campus, Physics B is shown in the required-subject column. A common note states that students must earn two credits by selecting one course from the courses covered by that note. Physics B is one of those courses. It is a two-credit, first-year lecture offered in the second semester.
