Why Science?

Science builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions. Students can select an area of science based on interest: the study of life and living organisms; the origin, history and structure of the earth; properties, reactions, and the structure of matter; or matter and energy. There are some opportunities for employment after two years, many careers require a Bachelor of Science degree. Students planning to complete a four-year degree should enroll in the A.S. program.
