Learn Principles and Skills for Success in Math & Science Fields

The Math & Science Community prepares you to transfer to a four-year school majoring in biology, chemistry, engineering, fermentation science, geology, geography, math or physics. Or start a science career in GIS, landscape design, or forestry and natural resources.  You will learn mathematical and scientific principles and tools to develop sound reasoning, problem solving, and critical-thinking skills. The Associate of Science degree is ideal for students who plan to get a bachelor's degree at a four-year institution. See all Math and Science degrees & certificates available at FRCC.

In our math and science degrees, you will be exposed to careers in math and science, and you will work in state-of-the-art labs, including a cadaver lab, GIS lab, instrument facility, and an observatory. Learn from experts — approximately 40 percent of our science faculty hold a Ph.D. in their field.
