The associate degree in biological science prepares students
for pre-professional careers and a curriculum in a four-year institution
leading to a baccalaureate degree in such areas as microbiology, botany,
zoology, and teaching. The biologist is also prepared to enter graduate or
professional programs of specialized study such as medicine, dentistry, medical
technology, osteopathy, veterinary medicine, agriculture, forestry, optometry,
and dental hygiene. See counseling for transfer requirements.
