Physics
The science of physics seeks to understand the physical universe and deals with the
behavior of matter and energy at their most fundamental levels. By observation, physicists
search for the basic principles that explain natural phenomena.
Many physics courses are offered online or in hybrid formats. The courses that are
part of the sequence for the AA or AS degree are also potentially offered in 14-week
formats as student demand and instructor availability permit.
