Associate in Arts (AA) or
Associate of Science (AS-Track 1)

Life scientists study living organisms, their structure, evolutionary development, behavior and life processes. Biologists are also interested in the relationship between animals, plants, microorganisms and their environments. The number and variety of plants and animals is vast, and life processes varied and complex; therefore, specialization is required early in upper-division work.
