The Associate in Science in Mathematics for Transfer Degree (AS-T) prepares a student for transfer into the CSU system for further study in pure or applied mathematics.  Earning a 4-year degree in mathematics prepares students for careers in which mathematical skills are in great demand, such as science, technology, engineering, computer science, business, industry, medicine, education or government.

Associate Degree for Transfer Requirements

  • 60 semester or 90 quarter CSU-transferable units.
  • Completion of the California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC); or students with rights to former general education patterns can complete California State University-General Education-Breadth pattern (CSU GE-Breadth) or the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC-CSU) pattern.
  • A minimum of 18 semester or 27 quarter units in the major or area of emphasis as determined by the community college district.
