Chemistry and Chemical Engineering • Associate in Science

Transfer Program

Colleague Code: AS.CHEM

Curriculum Code: ASD 101

Program Information:

This suggested listing of courses fulfills the AS degree requirements and prepares students for transfer to four-year schools to pursue bachelor’s degrees in chemistry, chemical engineering, and other closely related majors.
  • Transferable as the first two years of a chemical engineering program at most major colleges and universities.
  • Since program requirements vary among the four-year schools, the above courses are only suggested guidelines. Students are strongly encouraged to explore the specific program requirements of the four-year schools they are considering for their transfer, as they make their course selections for their first two years of study at LLCC. Additionally, LLCC advisors, faculty members, and deans are also sources of helpful advice.
  • Students who are planning on teaching in a secondary school are required to have a specified ACT score or to take an alternative test (determined by the State of Illinois) prior to transferring to an upper-division institution. Students should contact their transfer institution for more specific information associated with possible tests required for advancement in that program and for more information associated with this.
