The Chemistry Associate in Science Degree for Transfer (AS-T in Chemistry) is designed to provide an opportunity for the Chemistry major to achieve an Associate in Science in Chemistry for Transfer (AS-T in Chemistry) which completes the first and second year requirements for transfer to a four-year public California institution. Students with a degree in chemistry may pursue careers in a variety of fields such as pharmacy, medicine, engineering, teaching, biotechnology, patent law, and forensic science. While at least a baccalaureate degree is recommended preparation for those considering professional careers, completion of this curriculum will demonstrate commitment to the field and provide comprehensive preparation for further academic study through upper-division course work. This curriculum specifically prepares the prospective transfer student for upper-division coursework in Chemistry or a similar major at a California State University (CSU) campus. Students should consult a counselor, the Transfer Center, and the catalog of the transfer college or university to plan a specific program of study to meet the college or university's requirements.
