Transfer Degrees
Associate of Science Degree
The Associate of Science degree, Track 1 or 2, is designed to prepare science majors for transfer to a four-year college with junior standing with at least 90 credits (60 semester credits). Most coursework is in specified mathematics and sciences requirements, but also includes general requirements, and distribution requirements in humanities, social sciences and health or physical education as outlined on the Associate of Science program requirement sheet. This degree will satisfy some, but not all, of the general requirements at the receiving four-year college or university. Students should work with an adviser in science, computer science or engineering to review specific requirements.
Track 1:
- Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science, Geology, and Earth Sciences
Track 2:
- Physics, Computer Science, General Engineering, and Atmospheric Sciences
- Bioengineering, Chemical Pre-Engineering
- Computer and Electrical Pre-Engineering
- Mechanical, Civil, Aeronautical, Industrial, Materials Science Pre-Engineering
General Requirements
- Written Skills: 10 credits
- Quantitative Reasoning: 10 credits
- Health or Physical Education: 3 credits
- Cultural Diversity: At least five credits must be designated as having a cultural diversity component.
Distribution
- Fifteen (15) credits distributed in humanities and social sciences classes with a minimum of five (5) credits in each area.
Specific Requirements and Electives
- Additional credits in various courses to help reach the minimum of 90 credits needed for the degree.
