The Associate in Science in Geology for Transfer Degree includes lower division coursework
that is required for transfer and which focuses on the mastery of the identification
of earth materials and the use of geologic maps, stratigraphic sections, and remote

The Associate in Science in Geology for Transfer Degree is intended for
students who plan to complete a bachelor’s degree in Geology at a California State
University campus. Students completing this degree are guaranteed admission to the
CSU System, but not to a particular campus or major. Students transferring to a CSU
campus that does accept this degree will be required to complete no more than 60 units
after transfer to earn a bachelor’s degree. This degree may not be the best option
for students intending to transfer to a particular CSU campus or to a university or
college that is not part of the CSU system. In all cases, students should consult
with a counselor for more information on university admission and transfer requirements.
