The academic programs offered by the Department of Astronomy may be
loosely divided into two categories:
Undergraduate education:
We teach a large number of undergraduate-level courses in
astronomy and astrophysics. While many of these are targeted at
those majoring in astronomy, there are a number of more generic
courses that may be of interest to undergraduates in other
areas. Be sure to consult the list of Classes this Term as
well as the Caltech Course Catalog, since only a subset of the
available astronomy courses are offered each quarter.
Graduate education:
The education and training of graduate students towards the
doctoral degree is a major emphasis of the Astronomy
Department. Those considering graduate studies in our department
should consult our section on
Graduate Admissions for more
information, including details on procedures.
