Mathematics Transfer Major (60 Credit Hours)

Mathematics encompasses logic and the methodology of reasoning. It provides the tools for critical thinking and decision-making. The Associate in Science in Mathematics for Transfer, AS-T, degree prepares students for transfer at the junior level and with priority admission into the CSU system for further study in either pure or applied mathematics. A bachelor’s (4 year) degree in mathematics prepares students for a variety of careers, including science, technology, engineering, industry, and education. It can also help students prepare for advanced (master’s or above) degrees in business, law, or medicine. The AS-T degree assures that students will complete the appropriate lower-division general education courses required by the CSU’s.
