The Associate in Science degree is designed to transfer to a four-year college or university and has a greater emphasis in mathematics and science than the Associate in Arts degree.
The Associate of Science in Agriculture Science degree allows graduates to enter four-year colleges or universities with 62 credits and/or junior standing. Students wishing to transfer with this standing must work closely with the Hawkeye advising staff because specific baccalaureate program requirements vary.
Our 400-acre Center for Agriculture Science Education (CASE) utilizes new and up-to-date facilities and equipment to provide students hands-on experience with the latest production and management techniques.
The AS degree requires a total of 62 credit hours with a minimum of 36 credit hours of liberal arts core credits and the remaining 26 hours as college electives. Up to 16 credit hours of technical courses can be counted toward the 26 hours of electives. The AS degree tracking form demonstrates all the specific requirements for this degree. Listed below are the Hawkeye focus areas with possible four-year majors a student could declare after transfer.
