AA/AS in Biology, General

Biology is offered as an science-based transfer program designed for transfer. It prepares students for the initial years of a bachelor of science in the subject. The degree can be completed at many Lone Star College campuses and through the online campus. Working with an advisor helps students choose a plan that fits the university they hope to join. The college describes a two-plus-two path with the first half of a bachelor's degree earned here. Credits move to any Texas public college or university, so students should look at transfer degree maps and compare destination schools. Because the degree is organized as a transfer pathway, it suits students who already know the subject they want to major in and prefer to complete lower-division requirements close to home before moving to a university. Planning with an advisor early helps avoid repeating courses after transfer, and the program page links to degree maps and a list of destination universities.
