AA/AS in Biology, General

The Associate of Science in biological and physical sciences is intended for students who will transfer to a university and major in areas such as chemistry, geography, geology or physics. It is part of the college's science and technology pathway. Course selection combines the state core with several life and physical science classes and their laboratory components, plus electives chosen from the biological and physical sciences. English composition, mathematics, American history, government and the arts also appear in the plan. Students have to satisfy the state testing-readiness requirement. Since universities differ in what they accept toward a major, learners should talk with their intended school and their college advisor when they pick electives, so the credits apply to the bachelor's program they have in mind.
