Students develop an understanding of scientific principles relating to life and life processes from molecules to ecosystems.
Degrees: Students may earn an Associate in Science Degree - Option I (90 credits), or an Associate in Biology-DTA/MRP (90 credits). These degrees are applicable to students planning to transfer to a college or university. Please consult with an advisor at WWCC and your intended transfer institution for the most appropriate degree program. (See AS Option I and AA DTA in Degrees section of catalog).
