<p>It is DEFINITELY the case that advanced physics classes – such as those that would naturally follow introductory physics – taught within the physics department would count. Some other courses in the physics department would definitely NOT count – for example, Astronomy as typically used by non-science majors to fulfill general education science requirements.</p>
<p>You seem to be asking, however, about courses which sound identical to introductory physics but are taught out of the Engineering School. I’m not sure about this. Also bear in mind: if your advisor thinks medical schools will have difficulty with them, your engineering school might permit you to take the premed sequence.</p>
