A. COURSE DESCRIPTION

Nat Sci 1 is a 3-unit course (2 hrs lecture and 3 hrs lab per week) that relates natural sciences, particularly chemistry and physics,
with industrial technology. This course prioritizes the topics on electricity, heat energy, food and some related consumer products
along with the basic principles of chemistry and physics in order to cater particularly, to students majoring in industrial electricity,
refrigeration and air conditioning, power plant, and food technology.
Nat Sci 1 promotes scientific literacy through chemical nomenclature and conceptual understanding of the basic principles of
chemistry and physics in consonance with the aims of CHED for natural sciences ( CMO No. 54 s. 1996), that is, to help students
increase their scientific literacy and their capacity to approach scientific materials intelligently. It helps develops students analytical
and logical thinking through scientific method of inquiry, and provides basic knowledge and skills necessary to become active
participants (application) in the field of technology and engineering with passion to learn and keep abreast of the latest in
global/international development in science and technology.
