The UH-Manoa Department of Physics & Astronomy offers a variety of astronomy courses for UH-Manoa undergraduates, ranging from 100-level non-technical introductory courses to advanced 400-level courses suitable for students with a strong physics background. Astronomy 110, or one of the other 100-level courses, is an ideal way of fulfilling part of the science core requirement. There are also laboratory courses at both elementary and advanced levels.
