This program uses a Major Transfer Map Curriculum Articulation Policy (MTM CAP) that outlines specific course requirements for students at any participating Oregon community college who plan to transfer to a participating four-year public university and earn a Bachelor of Science in Biology.
The MTM CAP is intended for students who know they want to transfer and earn a Bachelor of Science in Biology, but who are unsure of their intended transfer destination. Students should work with an advisor to ensure they fulfill the requirements.
Graduation Requirements
The Biology Associate of Science Transfer (AST) degree requires the completion of 90 program credits in addition to prerequisite credits, which may be waived based on placement. Students must complete all courses outlined in this program with a grade of “C” or better to earn a degree. Students are strongly encouraged to meet with an Academic Advisor or faculty advisor before beginning any coursework.
