Triton College's Science Department goal is to not only provide students with scientific knowledge, but also to inspire students to wonder and be amazed by the world around them. Biology is an exciting and growing field with many opportunities for careers in genetics, microbiology, immunology, and entomology. Triton prides itself in small student-to-faculty ratios in all classes. Most students have the same instructor for lecture and lab, and we utilize state-of-the-art equipment in both lectures and labs.
This pathway is for students who intend to pursue a Bachelor of Arts degree at a four-year school. Students must meet general education requirements for the Associate in Arts degree, and should complete the remaining required semester hours according to the requirements of the four-year school to which they plan to transfer. Our advising team can assist you with creating an academic plan tailored fit to your transfer program and destination to ensure you are on-track.
