Whereas the traditional science A Levels specialise in one particular area of science (Physics, Chemistry or Biology), the Applied Science course contains content from all three science disciplines and concentrates on the applications and uses of these in the real world. Extended Level 3 Certificate: • Scientific principles associated with Biology, Chemistry and Physics • Experimental and practical techniques associated with applied science • The roles and skills of scientists, and the public and media perception of science • How the human body works • Scientific investigations. • An additional unit looking in more depth at a Biology, Chemistry or Physics topic. The two year A-level course includes all the topics mentioned above and introduces new areas of study such as electrochemistry, organic synthesis and transition metal chemistry.
