This transfer program is similar to the A.A.S. in Science
in its core course sequence. Only three natural
sciences are required, in addition to three computer
science courses, and the specific requirement of MTH

courses appropriate to the requirements of their
intended transfer institution. Students should
complete a DCC program comparable to the first two
years of the program at the transfer institution.
