MathThe Associate in Science in Mathematics for Transfer provides students the opportunity to meet lower division transfer requirements for a major in Mathematics. It provides the foundation for studying physics; engineering; the physical, biological, and health sciences; economics; business; computer science: statistics; and much more.

To obtain the Mathematics Associate in Science for Transfer, students must complete the following:

  • Maximum of 60 CSU-transferable units with a minimum grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 and a grade of “C” or better in all courses required for the major
  • A minimum of 18 semester units in the major as determined by the community college district
  • One of the following general education patterns: the California State University General Education-Breadth (CSU GE-Breadth) pattern of 39 units OR the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) pattern of 37 units.

The Associate in Science in Mathematics provides the background to satisfy upper division course work in mathematics and for entry-level positions that require a knowledge of mathematics such as Technical Assistant and Mathematical Technician.  Recipients of our AS degree, in mathematics, will be well prepared to continue their education in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) at a college or university.  The student is advised to check with the school to which he or she wishes to transfer for additional courses which may be required.
