Mathematics Associate in Science Degree for Transfer

Division: Mathematics and Computer Science

PROGRAM CODE: 2S30708

The Mathematics Associate in Science Degree for Transfer, also called the Mathematics AS-T Degree, prepares students to transfer to CSU campuses that offer bachelor's degrees in mathematics. Ed Code Section 66746-66749 states students earning the Mathematics AS-T Degree will be granted priority for admission as a Mathematics major to a local CSU, as determined by the CSU campus to which the student applies. Students with a degree in mathematics may pursue careers in a variety of industries such as education, finance, insurance, information technology, engineering and operations, manufacturing, consulting, analysis, research, and more. The Mathematics AS-T Degree requires a total of 18-20 units. The following is required for all AA-T or AS-T degrees, and there are no additional graduation requirements: (1) Completion of 60 semester units or 90 quarter units that are eligible for transfer to the California State University, including both of the following: (a) The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) or the California State University General Education – Breadth Requirements. (b) A minimum of 18 semester units or 27 quarter units in a major or area of emphasis, as determined by the community college district. (2) Obtainment of a minimum grade point average of 2.0. (3) ADTs also require that students must earn a C or better in all courses required for the major or area of emphasis. A P (Pass) grade is an acceptable grade for a course in the major only if the P is defined to be equivalent to a C or better.

TOTAL UNITS:18-20

Outcome 1: Analyze and synthesize information from functions, equations, models, or data sets in order to gain insights and draw conclusions

Outcome 2: Distinguish between the multiple possible methods to solve mathematical problems in order to apply the appropriate problem-solving strategy and explain the process and solution to others.
