Bachelor of Science in General Science

Florida Institute of Technology

Florida Tech's College of Science is renowned for degree programs that combine theory and practice, research and application. Often, first-year students are unsure of the exact degree they want to choose. Fortunately, Florida Tech's general science program offers students who are interested in the sciences but still deciding on a major the option to explore different fields for a year prior to declaring a major.The general science program includes solid course work in biology, chemistry and calculus (with the option to take physics), which keeps students on track with courses needed no matter which degree program they choose later. It also lets the student learn about their strengths and interests whether it is mathematics, chemistry, marine biology, premed studies, or astronomy and astrophysics.A Florida Tech education means personal attention, an interdisciplinary learning environment and opportunity for undergraduate research and publication. Being part of the general science program also means hands-on science - something you go out into the field and do in nearby natural resources such as the estuarine habitats of the Indian River Lagoon and the Atlantic Ocean marine ecosystem.
