Associate of Science
The associate of science degree program provides students with a broad academic education to prepare them for the workplace and for upper-level university study. The degree requirements for the associate of science may be met through LCCC’s university transfer courses or by taking university transfer courses at other recognized colleges and/or universities. Since requirements at transfer institutions vary widely, students should consult the catalog of the transfer institution and plan their program with an advisor.
Other programs can be pursued, as advisors can help students customize their associate of science programs to meet the transfer college/university’s requirements for math and/or science-related majors. Select from the general education/Ohio Transfer 36.
- English composition Six ENGL (College Composition) credit hours.
-
Social and behavioral sciences Six credit hours, representing two different disciplines.
-
Arts and humanities Six credit hours, representing two different disciplines.
-
Mathematics/statistics/logic and natural sciences Three credit hours in mathematics or logic and six credit hours in science, of which one course must be a lab science (lab courses identified with footnote1); and, two year-long sequences (do not have to be in the same discipline) selected from those listed below.
These sequences may be part of the science and mathematics requirements or may be taken as additional coursework.
Completion of the below requirements (excluding SDEV 101) may exceed the 40 credit hours required to complete the associate of science degree requirements; otherwise, the student must select from the above list (excluding SDEV 101) additional courses to complete a total of 36-40 credit hours. LCCC students must complete a minimum of 60 credit hours to complete the associate of science degree. Therefore, a student may earn the associate of science degree by completing the above requirements, SDEV 101 for one credit hour, and additional elective hours from these or any other courses. CMMC 177G, HSTR 252G, SOCY 256, SOCY 276G and WMST 210 can now be used as a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) OT36 elective. Completion of these requirements includes the Ohio Transfer 36. Choices within these ranges will require careful academic planning and advice. Students should seek assistance from an advisor before proceeding.
