The Department offers two options for an Associate in Science in Mathematics degree. The General option provides a rounded background in the mathematical sciences and statistics and is suitable as a terminal degree or for transfer to any 4-year college or university as a mathematics major. The Transfer option aligns with the State TMC<\/a> to streamline transfer to a California State University as a mathematics major.<\/p>\n Required<\/strong><\/p>\n Select one course from the following<\/strong><\/p>\n Select one additional course from the following<\/strong><\/p>\n Total units required for degree major: 18-19 units<\/p>\n Click here to access the visual representation of the math sequence<\/a>.<\/p>\n Click here to access the course student learning outcomes<\/a>.<\/p>\n Note: Any errors below are inadvertent.
