CAL-GETC (California General Education Transfer Curriculum) is the required general education pattern for this degree. Most students using Cal-GETC for this degree will complete more than 60 transferable units. For details, consult a Counselor and visit https://www.assist.org/

A student receiving a degree in this field will be able to:

  • Identify the basic areas of Chemistry that are appropriate to each Chemistry course. This content will allow students to continue in successive Chemistry courses, as well as relate to knowledge for matriculation and life-long learning.
  • Comprehend and use laboratory skills in synthetic, quantitative and instrumental methods as scientific approaches to gathering and verifying knowledge.
  • Demonstrate critical thinking in Chemistry including interpretation, evaluation, explanation and critical inquiry, how to ask appropriate questions, gather relevant information efficiently and creatively, sort through this information, reason logically from this information and come to reliable and trustworthy conclusions.
  • Collect, analyze and articulate results clearly and effectively in speech and in writing in an acceptable style of presentation.
