Associate of Science: Chemistry
This program of study is designed for the student planning to transfer to a four-year baccalaureate degree program in chemistry. The following represents a suggested program of study and is intended to meet typical requirements of a transfer institution. The program may be modified to reflect student interests and/or the requirements of a particular transfer institution.
High school students who plan to major in chemistry and pursue a professional career should have a good preparation in mathematics, biology, chemistry and physics. Two years of algebra and trigonometry should be a minimum; more math, especially calculus or pre-calculus, is desirable.
