For discipline outcomes, see General Education Outcomes-Science or Computer Science .

Chemeketa offers a number of biology courses. Many of these courses can be used to fulfill the “Science with a lab” requirements of the Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer degree and the Associate of Science Transfer degrees in Business and Computer Science. See Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer (AAOT) Degree Requirements , Associate of Science/Oregon Transfer Degree in Business (ASOT-BUS) , and Associate of Science/Oregon Transfer Degree in Computer Science (ASOT-CS)  for a complete listing.

Oregon universities offering Bachelor of Arts and/or Bachelor of Science degrees in Biology (including botany, zoology and marine biology, etc.) are Eastern Oregon University, Oregon State University, Portland State University, Southern Oregon University, University of Oregon, and Western Oregon University.

Those interested in pre-professional study (medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, veterinary medicine) should consider the competitive nature of professional schools. We recommend the most rigorous biology and chemistry sequences for which they qualify in addition to required courses in general education. Oregon Health Sciences University offers a DMD degree in Dentistry and an M.D. degree in Medicine, and Oregon State University offers a DVM in Veterinary Medicine and a PharmD in Pharmacy.

As a student, you are responsible for learning the departmental requirements of the school to which you plan to transfer. Consult with Chemeketa Advising and First Year Programs staff or a Chemeketa Biology faculty member. Also, you should make early contact with an advisor at the institution to which you plan to transfer to learn of any possible changes in an academic area.
