Associate in Science for Transfer - Mathematics

The Associate in Science in Mathematics for Transfer Degree provides students with sufficient understanding of mathematical concepts, skills, and applications to attain upper division status in mathematics at most four-year colleges and universities. This coursework will satisfy the lower division mathematics requirements at a California State University (CSU). Successful completion of the transfer degree in Mathematics guarantees the student acceptance to the California State University. Program Learning Outcomes: Upon completion of this program, students will be able to solve applications in math and science using derivatives, integrals, differential equations and linear algebra; evaluate limits, derivatives and integrals; solve a variety of rudimentary and second order differential equations; and analyze, synthesize and evaluate theorems in Linear Algebra.

This degree is intended for students who are interested in the theory of mathematics and are planning on transferring to a four-year university and majoring in Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, or Computer Science.

The Mathematics AS-T degree requires completion of the major and the CSU General Education (40 units) or IGETC (37-39 units) requirements.

All courses used to satisfy the major for the Associate in Science degree must be completed with a grade of "C" or better.
