The mission of the Natural Sciences Department is to provide access to educational excellence in sciences creating an environment using contemporary curriculum, methodology and technology to assist students in reaching career goals.
Students who intend to transfer to a four-year institution to earn a baccalaureate degree with a major in Biological or Physical Sciences are encouraged to complete the recommended sequence of general education and elective courses. To be certain of course transferability, students should first meet with an Southwest advisor for assistance with long-range degree planning. The students should then review course recommendations with the college or university to which they intend to transfer for a baccalaureate degree. The institution that receives course credits always makes the final decision about transferability of those credits.
