Program Overview

The discipline of Physical Science is concerned with the study of the physical world around us. It primarily concerns non-living systems and includes the fields of Physics, Astronomy, Chemistry, and Geology. The Bachelor of Arts in Physical Science is a flexible STEM degree with a strong Liberal Arts basis. All students in the major take not only several courses in algebra and trigonometry-based physics, but also an array of courses in other fields of Physical Science and related Natural Science. The general program is very flexible, allowing students to choose Physical Science electives most relevant to their  individual career goals. Alternatively, there are two optional concentrations: Teaching and Foundational Health. The Teaching concentration is intended for students working to teach Foundational General Science. Students will only be admitted to the Foundational Health concentration if they have already completed BIOL 115 or BIOL 110, BIOL 220, and BIOL 224. This concentration is intended for students interested in blending their Health background with a broad Physical Science education.

Upon completion of the program, students should be able to:

  • Display a broad range of knowledge of the physical sciences: physics, astronomy, chemistry, and geology.
