AA/AS in Chemistry

This Associate of Science in Chemistry gives students a grounding in the principles and laboratory methods of modern chemistry. Chemistry connects biology, physics, environmental science, and materials science, and the curriculum reflects that by including related STEM courses. Students spend time in the laboratory testing ideas themselves, which supports later study or entry-level scientific work. Areas of concentration let learners shape the program around their goals. The degree is meant for those who intend to continue at a university, and it also fits people interested in healthcare, research, or education. Prospective students should review the college catalog for the complete course sequence and the expected learning results. Speaking with an academic advisor before registering helps align coursework with transfer plans or career goals, and the college welcomes questions from anyone considering the program.
