Green River Community College

The Associate in Science degree encompasses general education courses required of first and second year students and is intended to prepare students planning to transfer to a four-year institution in the science related fields. It will give students the broad background needed before beginning more specialized, upper-division courses. It also indicates completion of a two-year liberal arts program, which can help students in all aspects of their life including career goals.

The Associate in Science degree curriculum is not intended to fulfill General Education/University (GER/GUR) requirements, but rather to prepare prospective transfer science students to enter the state universities with junior standing, not only in credits but with major/program preparation as well.
