"We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology."
Carl Sagan
General Program Description
Science and scientific literacy play a key role in educating you today for the world you will live in tomorrow. Science courses develop your abilities to think critically, solve problems, and make ethical decisions; to communicate your questions, express your opinions, and challenge your ideas in a scientifically literate way; and to exercise an awareness of your role as an ecologically literate citizen, engaged and competent in meeting the responsibilities of caring for living things and the planet. Scientifically literate citizens are able to use scientific evidence, as well as their knowledge from other areas of learning, to develop their own views, discuss and debate, and make informed decisions in their daily lives and about broader issues, while maintaining their curiosity and wonder about the natural world.
Science courses include content from Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Earth and Space sciences.
