Physical Science

Physical Science is a broad discipline that encompasses a multitude of natural sciences, aiming to study non-living systems. Coursera's Physical Science catalogue teaches you the fundamental principles of physics, chemistry, geology, meteorology, and astronomy. You'll learn about the behavior and properties of matter, the transformation and conservations of energy, the structure and composition of the Earth, weather patterns, and the mysteries of outer space. Mastering these concepts will enable you to understand the natural world, solve real-world problems, and create a strong foundation for advanced scientific studies.
