An Associate Degree in 生命科学 is intended to form a foundation from which a student can pursue Medical Laboratory Science at Oregon Institute of Technology when coupled with an additional year of coursework at Warner Pacific University; consult the appropriate academic advisor. This program can also be used to fulfill prerequisites for programs leading to other allied health professions.
Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of the A S in Life Science, graduates will be able to:
- Demonstrate a comprehension of the fundamental concepts, 理论, and models necessary to the understanding of the biological sciences.
- Demonstrate the ability to integrate the disciplines within the sciences and mathematics in order to critically approach and evaluate 理论, 分析数据, and solve problems.
- Effectively communicate their approach to data analysis and problem-solving in both
