Physical Science

Physical science is the study of non-living systems and phenomena, in a variety of fields such as geology, inorganic chemistry, and physics. An associate's degree in physical science is excellent preparation for taking on a four-year degree focused more heavily in one of the specific fields.

At Independence Community College the Physical Science program offers an introduction to life science while providing students with a firm grasp of mathematics, chemistry, biology, and astronomy.

The two-year Associate of Science Degree is designed as a transfer program for completion at a four-year college or university. Students gain theoretical knowledge and laboratory skills beneficial for an entry-level career in the physical sciences and leave the program well prepared for continued study. ICC’s small class sizes offer students more instructor contact, individualized attention, and result in higher rates of success.

Each student wishing to receive a degree in a science program should consult with a science advisor prior to enrolling in any courses.
