Chemistry, Associate in Science for UC Transfer
Chemistry, Associate in Science for UC Transfer
This Associate in Science degree in Chemistry for UC Transfer degree is intended to enhance student transfer and increase academic preparation for CCC students as they prepare to transfer into a Chemistry program at a UC campus. Along with the Transfer Agreement Guarantee (TAG) students completing this degree are guaranteed admission to the UC system, but not necessarily to a particular UC campus or major of their choice. Students should consult with a counselor for more information on university admission and transfer requirements, as this degree in Chemistry may not be the best option for students intending to transfer to a particular UC campus or to a college or university that is not part of the UC system.
Associate in Science degree in Chemistry for UC Transfer degree, students must complete:
- 53 semester units in Chemistry major preparation and IGETC* courses, as prescribed on the UCTP Template.
- Meet the specified requirements as stated in the Transfer Agreement Guarantee (TAG) for the available school.
- A cumulative minimum grade point average of 3.5 in the major. (Students who earn less than 3.5 GPA (UC transferable) still meet the associate degree graduation requirement but will not receive guaranteed admission into a UC.
- A “C” grade or better, or “P”, in all courses required for the major. Although a “P” grade is allowed (Title 5 section 55063), it is highly recommended that students take the course for a letter grade (A, B, or C) due to unit limitations on “P/NP” courses by the UC system and Moorpark College.
- A minimum of 12 units in residence at the college granting the degree.
* NOTE: The degree allows for the deferment of two courses in Area 3 (Arts and Humanities) and two courses in Area 4 (Social Science) of the IGETC. These are to be completed at the UC, once transferred.

Upon successful completion of this program, students will be able to:
- use the process of scientific inquiry to qualitatively and quantitatively solve chemistry problems by gathering evidential information, analyzing data, forming appropriate conclusions, and communicating these results through written and oral expressions.
- demonstrate a mastery of organic chemistry material at a level equal to or greater than the national average as determined by the nationally standardized Organic Chemistry exam developed by the American Chemical Society (ACS) at the completion of the capstone class CHEM M07B Organic Chemistry II.
