Northwestern University Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences 23 courses
Double-counting note: Students who may be considering adding a third major (or a minor) to ISP+physics should keep in mind that Weinberg College prohibits double-counting a major course toward some other major or minor, except where this is explicitly permitted in this catalog. Weinberg College does allow double-counting a major course toward a general bachelor's degree requirement (i.e. degree requirements other than majors or minors). Other programs or schools may have their own restrictions that supersede this, so check the relevant parts of this catalog for possible limits. The Integrated Science Program is a highly selective BA program in Weinberg College that includes the following as part of its curriculum: It is possible to complete a double major in physics and ISP by completing the following 6 additional upper-level courses:
