AA/AS in Chemistry

Chemistry at LBCC explores how substances are identified, how they interact and how they change. The Associate of Science is designed for students heading to Oregon State, with tracks in advanced chemistry or biochemistry, biology, engineering and social science. Students arriving well prepared in secondary-school math and science can generally complete it in two years; pre-calculus needs lengthen the timeline. Those targeting other universities may choose an Oregon transfer associate degree in arts and should consult advisors at both institutions. Program maps and catalog entries on the college website lay out the course sequence term by term. Working with an advisor early helps students line up credits with the destination university and avoid repeating classes. Tuition follows the college's standard rate rather than a program-specific price, and prospective students can ask for further details through an online request form.
