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.

To obtain an Associate in Science in Chemistry for the UC Transfer Pathway, students must:
- Complete all courses required for the Chemistry major, as prescribed on the UCTP Template.
- Complete Cal-GETC* courses in the following areas, as prescribed on the UCTP Template.
- Area 1A Freshman Composition (3 units)
- Area 1B Critical Thinking (3 units)
- Area 3 Arts and Humanities (3 units)
- Area 4 Social and Behavioral Science (3 units)
- Area 5B Biological Science (4 units)
- Area 6 Ethnic Studies
3. Meet the specified requirements as stated in the Transfer Agreement Guarantee (TAG) for the available school.
4. Obtain 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.
5. Obtain a grade of “C” or better, or “P” for all courses in the Cal-GETC and courses required for the major. Although a “P” grade is allowed (Title 5 section 55062), 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.
6. Complete a minimum of 12 units within the college district.
* NOTE: The degree allows for the postponement of one course in Area 3 (Arts and Humanities) and one course in Area 4 (Social and Behavioral Science) of the Cal-GETC. These are to be completed after transfer.

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.
