Chemistry: Math Concentration to Chemistry (B.A.)

An opportunity to gain an associate degree from Delaware Tech and a bachelor's degree from the University of Delaware.

Your Path to a Bachelor's Degree

Delaware Tech has established agreements with four-year colleges and universities that connect Delaware Tech associate degree programs with bachelor's degree programs to create smooth transfer opportunities for you. These Connected Degree programs enable you to complete your associate degree and then transfer to a four-year degree program as a junior.

The Connected Degree 2+2 Curriculum

Delaware Tech's associate degree program in Chemistry: Math Concentration teaches students the processes and procedures of laboratory work, modern instrumentation and chemical principles in preparation for employment in research and in a laboratory setting. This option also prepares students for further study in Chemistry at the baccalaureate level. University of Delaware's Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemistry prepares an individual for advanced study in graduate or professional school or for an entry-level position in the chemical industry and chemistry-related fields such as pharmaceuticals, oil, health care, agriculture or government laboratories. Students learn more than theory and facts; they are also encouraged to consider how this knowledge can be put to use for the benefit of humankind and society. Some students go on to medical, dental or pharmacy school, while others continue their studies in graduate programs for chemistry, biochemistry, or related areas.
