The A.S. Biology degree offers the student a flexible way to earn a Biology Associate degree. After completing a one-year general biology sequence, choose one of three tracks:
- Biodiversity track is for students interested in ecology, field biology, zoology, botany, and similar fields.
- Cell and molecular biology track is for students interested in molecular biology, genetics, cell biology, and biochemistry or
- Pre-health professions track is for students interested in medicine, dentistry, and veterinary medicine.
This degree may facilitate transfer to baccalaureate majors in biology, and in many cases may facilitate transfer to more specialized majors such as Botany, Ecology, Environmental Science, Genetics, Molecular biology, Microbiology, or Zoology.
