People in the physics concentration focus on the characteristics of matter and energy and their relationship to each other. Through courses in various types of physics, students investigate dynamics, magnetism, atomic and nuclear physics, heat, sound and other physical phenomena. In addition, students develop efficient investigative skills and learn to accurately analyze and report their findings. Students who earn associate degrees in science from Oklahoma City Community College are well prepared to continue their studies at a four-year college or university. After graduating, they find job opportunities in education, astronomy, geology and meteorology, as well as in government, private industry and with the aerospace industry.
