Science
The Associate of Science in Science is designed to prepare students to transfer to four-year institutions and pursue a Bachelor of Science degree in an area of natural or physical sciences, or mathematics. This program supports the Transfer Virginia common curricula in Biology, Chemistry, Geology, Information Technology, Mathematics, and Physics. The list of recommended transfer majors that fall under this award is not exclusive, and students should carefully consider the requirements to their intended four-year institution to determine if the Science A.S. provides the most appropriate plan of study. Students are strongly encouraged to consult an academic advisor and review transfer options
