AA/AS in Physics

Physics is a first step for students fascinated by how matter moves and how energy behaves, and by the math that describes them. It lays groundwork in physics and mathematics for transfer into engineering, astronomy or other physical and technical fields. Experiments and classwork let students study forces, momentum and energy in action. This liberal arts degree, taking about two years, suits students adding physics to their general education or heading to a university to major in it. Course content parallels the opening years of typical university physics and engineering degrees. Small sections allow direct interaction with instructors devoted to student success. Interested applicants can ask the college for more details, arrange a visit to the campus, or begin an application directly through its website.
