This associate degree program is essentially a Chemistry, Engineering or
Physics transfer program which is designed to meet the requirements for entry into the lower junior level of most baccalaureate degree programs (Chemistry, Engineering or Physics). The goals of the Chemistry, Physics and Pre-engineering Transfer Program are to develop in our students high-level skills, such as problem solving, reasoning, and learning ability, to prepare students for well-paying positions with excellent growth potential in applied sciences, and to prepare students for advanced study in B.S. Degree Programs.
