AA/AS in Chemistry

The Chemistry transfer pathway gives students a grounding in both general and organic chemistry in modern laboratories. The emphasis is on thinking like a scientist and explaining scientific ideas clearly. Course-based undergraduate research lets students design experiments, analyze data and use methods that working chemists rely on. The plan is built for a smooth moving to a Minnesota State campus, where students can continue into advanced chemistry coursework. The credential totals 60 credits and is offered at Coon Rapids. Students can work with academic advising to plan their courses, and the college points to financial aid and scholarships as ways to lower costs. It also reports that students save roughly 65 percent per credit on average compared with regional public and private universities. Prospective students may request information or apply online, and the admissions and advising offices answer questions by email or phone.
