Because In Science, Matter Matters
Coastline College courses in astronomy, chemistry, geology, and physics for students who are interested in careers ranging from Astronomy to Zoology. We currently offer AS-T degrees in Chemistry, Geology, and Physics.
Our goal is to help you to succeed, whether you are a STEM major who needs calculus-based physics, a nursing major who needs Chemistry with a "wet-lab," or any student who needs a science course to graduate.
The Physical Science Department offers online, hybrid, and onsite courses that are designed to meet your needs. Most of our onsite courses are offered at the Newport Beach Campus overlooking the Pacific.
