This department contains two disciplines: chemistry and physics.

Chemistry: Chemistry is the study of the composition and reactions of substances. The study of chemistry can apply to a wide variety of fields, including forensic science, environmental studies, the development and testing of medicines, chemical engineering, agriculture and food processing, and research into new energy sources..

Physics:  A thorough knowledge of physics can form a basis for work in many areas of modern science and engineering, and can provide an excellent background for the development and application of advanced technologies in medicine, law, and business.
