Students will enhance their quantitative problem solving and critical thinking skills. Laboratory work will develop basic laboratory skills, experience with instrumentation, and data collection techniques. The Associate of Science in Chemistry degree prepares students for upper division chemistry courses. Students must earn a C or better in all courses required for the major in order to qualify for the degree.\n\n### Program Requirements"
