Mathematics AS-T Degree - California State University GE Breadth

This degree is designed to meet common lower-division requirements for a major in mathematics on most California State University (CSU) campuses.  Satisfactory completion of the CRC Associate in Science in Mathematics for Transfer (AS-T) degree provides a solid foundation and satisfies the standard prerequisites for upper-division coursework in mathematics at most CSU and other 4-year universities.  However, it is highly recommended that students meet with a counselor since major and general education requirements vary.

Career Options/Outlook:

Mathematicians can pursue careers as research analysts, statisticians, or actuaries.  For example, Operations Research Analysts formulate and apply mathematical modeling and other optimizing methods to develop and interpret information that assists management with decision-making, policy formulation, or other managerial functions. May collect and analyze data and develop decision support software, services, or products. May develop and supply optimal time, cost, or logistics networks for program evaluation, review, or implementation. Career opportunities require more than an associate degree.

Transfer notes:

Please meet with a counselor for specific transfer course evaluation or transferring to a specific 4-year institution.

General Education (GE):

Non-specified GE courses identified by CRC Area, CSU Area or IGETC Area without pre- or co-requisite can be taken at any semester.

Honors option:

The CRC Honors Program is designed specifically for academically accomplished students and for students with the potential for high achievement. Students who complete 15 units or more in honors-designated courses will earn special recognition as an Honors Scholar, a distinction that may entitle the student to guaranteed transfer and scholarship opportunities at select transfer colleges and universities.

About this program map:

This program map represents one possible pathway to complete the program. Please see a counselor to create an education plan customized to meet your needs. This map is not a guarantee of course availability or financial aid applicability.

Zero Textbook Costs (ZTC):

The Zero Textbook Costs designation and logo are added to any course that provides free access to all required instructional materials. These are typically shared with students through Canvas. Courses that are designated as ZTC may still require students to purchase supplemental materials such as lab coats, a calculator, art supplies, etc. See full definitions and searching tips on the Zero Textbook Costs page of the college website.
