Associate of Science for Transfer degree in Biology (STEM)

Program Overview

Biology is the scientific study of life through the observation of structure, function, reproduction, growth, origin, evolution, and behavior of living organisms and their relation to each other and their environment. Advances in biological knowledge are providing solutions to the most challenging problems in medicine, environmental resources, agriculture and human ecology. Employment opportunities continue to increase as knowledge grows in genetic engineering, embryonic development, learning and memory, aging, environmental studies, natural resource management and the regulation of populations.

The Associate in Science in Biology for Transfer degree (AS-T in Biology) provides the foundational knowledge in Biology to students who want to earn a Baccalaureate Degree in Biology. This degree is in compliance with the Student Transfer Achievement Reform Act {Senate Bill 1440, codified in California Education Code sections 66746-66749} and guarantees admission to a California State University (CSU) campus for any community college student who completes an “associate degree for transfer,” a variation of the associate degrees traditionally offered at a California community college. Upon completion of the transfer associate degree, the student is eligible for transfer with junior standing into the California State University (CSU) system. Students will be given priority consideration when applying to a particular program that is similar to the student’s community college area of emphasis.
