Overview

The Associate of Science (A.S.) degree is designed for students who intend to continue their education and obtain a baccalaureate degree. The A.S. is the appropriate choice for students who will take upper division coursework in mathematics, biological sciences, and physical sciences. The Essential Learning requirements of this degree program meet the Colorado Statewide General Education Core and the lower division general education requirements at most public institutions in Colorado. In the Biology Program students choose courses from four areas: cell, molecular, and developmental biology; anatomical and physiological biology; organismal biology; or ecology, evolution, and systematics. Graduates of our program with an A.S. degree may then seek to continue their education to pursue careers in teaching, plant pathology, wildlife biology, cell biology or biotechnology, among just a few of the career options, or may use their A.S. to support careers in other disciplines.

Optional Practical Training (OPT)

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
