Many colleges/universities offer baccalaureate degrees in this field. Students planning to transfer to a four-year college or university should complete the lower-division major requirements and the general education pattern for the specific transfer institution. SMC has articulation agreements with the many UC and CSU campuses, as well as several private and out-of-state institutions.
Exact major requirements for UC and CSU campuses can be found online at assist.org.
A listing of private, nonprofit California colleges and universities can be found online at aiccu.edu. For articulation agreements between SMC and some of these institutions see smc.edu/articulation.
The University of California system has a transfer pathway for any UC campus that offers Biochemistry, Biology, Cell Biology, and Molecular Biology. For more information, visit pathwaysguide.universityofcalifornia.edu
PLEASE NOTE: Due to the competitive nature of Biology, students are advised to complete as many lower-division courses as possible prior to transfer. Please see a counselor for more information.
