About the Program

Matter and energy are what hold our universe together but few of us understand how they work in a real sense. For this reason, professionals with a physics background have incredibly unique expertise that can be applied in a multitude of ways. If your dream is to make a big discovery that will change the world or invent new technology that will change the future, a Physics degree will give you a firm foundation. In an associate degree program in Physics, you will explore topics like heat, light, and sound and learn about the laws of property and motion. The knowledge and skills you acquire can lead to jobs in numerous fields, including scientific research, education, engineering, healthcare, information technology, business, and space travel.

An associate program in Physics is a first step toward a career as a programmer, research analyst, high school physics teacher, or software engineer. This degree is transferable to universities offering bachelor’s degrees in Physics.

Students should work closely with their advisor and contact their transfer institution choices for more specific transfer information.
