Chemistry Associate in Science Degree Program
Program Learning Outcomes
- Use the scientific method and appreciate its importance to the development of scientific thought.
- Demonstrate critical thinking and analyze physical systems in terms of scientific concepts.
- Document and communicate their work effectively.
Program Overview
The Physical Science Degree is designed to give the student breadth in the physical sciences while providing considerable strength in one of the specialized physical science fields. The lower-division program is virtually the same as that taken in the first two years of college by a chemistry, physics, or geology major. A major in physical science can serve as preparation for further study in technical fields and serves as an excellent background for professional training in law, business, medicine, or education.
