Pure and Applied Science

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The Pure and Applied profile of the Science program is two-year, pre-university program that prepares students to pursue higher education in the physical and/or computer sciences, as well as engineering. The pure and applied science profile provides students with the necessary foundation in biology and chemistry, while also providing them with in-depth knowledge of mathematics and physics. In this program, we prepare students by training them in fundamentals of physical sciences and engineering, such as:

• Differential equations
• Advances calculus
• Statistics
• Problem solving in engineering physics using MATLAB
