Physics plays an integral role in nearly every major career path. With an Associate of Science degree from Genesee Community College in Liberal Arts Natural Science with a concentration in Physics you will have taken the first step toward any of these diverse career paths.
GCC’s coursework in physics, chemistry and mathematics will provide the skills and knowledge needed to investigate and understand the laws of the universe and is the route to many different dynamic professions. Successful completion of an associate in science degree allows you to continue your studies as a third year student in any SUNY four-year college or university or transfer to a private institution.

GCC also offers free tutoring to help students individually in areas of specific need. Additionally, state-of-the-art technology has always been a priority at GCC – from the science labs to the new Food Processing Technology lab, the outdoor Nature Trail to the dozens of online databases at the library. There are also smart classrooms and WiFi connections across all campus locations, and 26 open-access computer labs.
Finally, GCC is friendly and prides itself on being flexible and accessible. Classes are offered day and night at seven campus locations, and each semester more than 100 courses are offered online.
