Best major to transfer to chemistry?

[hatelove]

<p>I’m currently looking to attend a community college since my grades can’t get me into any other school for free (with financial aid I can attend CC for free) so I can transfer to a school that has chemistry as a major, as this CC does not.</p>

<p>None of the courses offered at this CC seems related to chemistry or chemical engineering at all…here is a full list:</p>

<p>

Transfer Programs</p>

<p>Transfer curricula, which are equivalent to the first two years at a four-year college, are designed for students who plan to continue their studies at a baccalaureate institution or professional school.</p>

<p>Associate in Arts degree (A.A.):</p>

<pre><code>Education
Liberal Arts and Sciences
</code></pre>

<p>Associate in Science degree (A.S.):</p>

<pre><code>Biotechnology
Business Administration
Criminal Justice
Dual/Joint Nursing
Engineering Science
Environmental Health
Gallery and Museum Studies
Health Sciences
Mathematics and Science
Science for Forensics
Visual and Performing Arts
</code></pre>

<p>Career Programs</p>

<p>Career curricula combine preparation for a career with a solid general education. Graduates are prepared to enter jobs in business, health sciences, industry, or government immediately after graduation. Although career curricula are not primarily designed to prepare students for transfer to baccalaureate institutions, many career graduates decide to continue their studies and earn the baccalaureate.</p>

<p>Associate in Applied Science degree (A.A.S.):</p>

<pre><code>Accounting
Computer Information Systems (CIS)
(with tracks in Computer Programming and Microcomputer Applications Software)
Management (with concentrations in Marketing and Real Estate-Insurance)
Office Administration and Technology
(with tracks in Administrative Secretary and Office Technology)
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technology (ECET) offers four AAS degree programs in technology:
Computer Engineering Technology
Electronic Engineering Technology
Telecommunications Technology
New Media Technology
Digital Art and Design
Laser and Fiber Optics Engineering Technology
Massage Therapy
Mechanical Engineering Technology
Medical Office Assistant
Computerized Architectural and Industrial Design
(formerly Design Drafting and Computer Graphics)
Music Electronic Technology
Nursing
</code></pre>

<p>Certificate Programs</p>

<p>Certificate programs offer students the opportunity to acquire professional skills in a specific field. Students accepted in a certificate program have matriculated status.</p>

<pre><code>Accounting/Office Administration Technology
Computer Information Systems
Health Care Office Administration: Managing Coding and Billing
Medical Office Assistant
Microsoft Office Applications Proficiency Preparation
New Media Technology
Photography
School Secretary
</code></pre>

<p>Does the community college have the following courses:</p>

<p>Chemistry: general chemistry (year sequence), organic chemistry (year sequence)
Math: freshman calculus, multivariable calculus, linear algebra, differential equations
Physics: calculus-based sequence (year) for scientists and engineers including mechanics, thermodynamics, electricity and magnetism
English composition
Other humanities and social studies courses</p>

<p>?</p>

<p>If so, it may have enough to fulfill transfer requirements for chemical engineering or chemistry at a state university – check the state university’s transfer credit web site.</p>

<p>You can also check other community colleges to see if they have the needed prerequisites.</p>

<p>Note that chemical engineering has better job and career prospects than chemistry does.</p>
