The course covers Biology, Chemistry and Physics and the skills needed by scientists to collect, analyse and interpret data.
You will carry out experiments and learn how science is used in different jobs. Assignments are based on real applications of science in areas such as forensic science, food technology and environmental science.
A number of specifications will be changing and prospectus entries are based on information we have to date. This means that course content may be subject to change.
You will be assessed through practical projects and assignments and two external exams.
Students from this course have gone on to do the BTEC Level 3 Extended Diploma in Applied Science.
