Group 4: Experimental sciences
It is a requirement of the program that students study at least one subject from group 4.
At ISE, the following subjects are available:
Biology
Chemistry
Physics
All of these subjects may be studied at higher level or standard level—except environmental systems, which is available at standard level only.
Each subject contains a body of knowledge together with scientific methods and techniques that students are required to learn and apply. In their application of scientific methods, students develop an ability to:
- analyse
- evaluate, and
- synthesize scientific information.
A compulsory project encourages students to appreciate the environmental, social and ethical implications of science. This exercise is collaborative and interdisciplinary: students analyse a topic or problem that can be investigated in each of the science disciplines offered by the school. It is also an opportunity for students to explore scientific solutions to global questions.
