Science, AA&S
Purpose: The Science program is designed for students who plan to transfer to a four-year institution to complete a baccalaureate degree in a pre-professional or scientific program. It is appropriate for students who plan to major in one of the biological or physical sciences, pharmacy, agriculture, forestry, science education, pre-medicine, pre-dentistry, pre-veterinary, nursing, or one of the many allied health professions.
Admission Requirements: All students will be required to demonstrate college readiness through transcript review or informed self-placement. Based on this review students may request or be required to enroll in prerequisite or corequisite math and/or English courses.
Science Curriculum Degree Requirements:
Student Development (1cr)
Social Sciences (6cr)

4Independent study and presentation is to be completed in collaboration with a 200-level science/math course or the specific course determined by each science track, if listed.
Applied Mathematics Track Requirements
Math/Science Elective (3-4 Cr)1,2
Transfer Electives (7-8 Cr)
Minimum Track Credits: 37
Total Minimum Degree Credits: 60
1Capstone to be taken with Math/Science elective.
2The choice of elective depends heavily on the student’s transfer destination. Check with the school to which you plan to transfer for Mathematics major requirements.
3Choose any 4-credit course from BIO/CHM/GIS/GOL/PHY. CSC courses do not count toward this requirement.
4Students testing out of ITE 115 should instead take an additional math/science elective from the above list.
