Program Description The Associate in Science in Biology for Transfer prepares students to seamlessly transfer to the California State University (CSU) system as a Biology major. Students completing this degree are guaranteed admission to the CSU system, but not to a particular campus or major. Students transferring to a CSU campus that are accepted into the Biology major will be required to complete no more than 60 units after transfer to earn a bachelor's degree. This degree gives students the Biology, Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics knowledge that allows them to succeed in upper division courses after transfer. In the major, students gain knowledge of biological molecules, cell structure and function, bioenergetics, Mendelian and molecular genetics, microbiology, plant biology, evolution, ecology, biodiversity, and biotechnology. In the laboratory students learn experimental design including data collection and analysis, keeping a legal laboratory notebook, and reporting the results in a standard scientific journal format. The Biology courses give students an extensive laboratory experience where they gain essential skills required to study and manipulate macromolecules, aseptically transfer cells, work with the common model organisms used in Biology research, and carry out a field study. The Associate in Science in Biology for Transfer is fully transferable to the CSU. Students who meet the CSU's minimum eligibility requirements are guaranteed priority admission to a CSU campus, though not necessarily to a particular campus or major. With this degree you will be required to take no more than 60 semester or 90 quarter units after transfer to complete a bachelor's degree if you transfer into a program at the CSU that's similar to the Associate in Science in Biology for Transfer. The Associate in Science in Biology for Transfer requires: 1. Complete 60 semester units that are eligible for transfer to the California State University, including both of the following: a.The California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC) b. A minimum of 18 semester units in a major or area of emphasis, as determined by the community college district 2. Obtain a minimum grade point average of 2.0 3. Complete all courses within the major with a minimum grade of C or P if taken on a Pass/No Pass basis Program Outcomes Students who complete the Associate in Science in Biology for Transfer will be able to: 1. Design and/or interpret an investigation, including data collection and/or analysis. 2. Describe the molecular basis of genetics and energetics. 3. Explain the principles and mechanisms of microevolution and macroevolution.

The program incorporates a study of the mathematics, chemistry, and biology required to understand and research biological processes including cell biology, molecular biology, bioenergetics, genetics, population genetics, microbiology, evolution, developmental biology, ecology, biodiversity, and biotechnology. The Associate in Science can be obtained by completing the 40-unit major, General Education, and electives as needed to complete a minimum of 60 units. All courses in the major must be completed with a minimum grade of C or a P if the course is taken on a Pass/No Pass basis.

These fields include nursing, respiratory therapy, radiological science, physical therapy, occupational health, dental assistant, and dental hygiene. The degree provides basic knowledge in chemistry, microbiology, human anatomy, and human physiology. These are the common prerequisites for community college and university allied health majors. The Certificate of Achievement can be obtained upon completion of the 18-19-unit major. The Associate in Science can be obtained by completing the 18-19-unit major, General Education, and electives as needed to complete a minimum of 60 units. All courses for the major must be completed with a minimum grade of C or a grade of P if the course is taken on a Pass/No Pass basis. Program Outcomes Students who complete the Biomedical Sciences Certificate of Achievement/Associate in Science will be able to: 1. Demonstrate knowledge of the structure and function of the major organ systems of the human body. 2. Demonstrate knowledge of the normal physiological functions of the organ systems and explain how disturbances of normal physiological functions lead to metabolic and physiological disorders (clinical applications). 3. Demonstrate knowledge of how microorganisms interact with the human body and describe how these interactions lead to health or human disease Program Outcomes Students who complete the Biology Associate in Science will be able to: 1. Design and/or interpret an investigation, including data collection and/or analysis. 2. Describe the molecular basis of genetics and energetics. 3. Explain the principles and mechanisms of microevolution and macroevolution.
