  Science Concentration
  

Students intending to transfer to four-year, Bachelor-level programs, particularly in biology or chemistry, enroll in the A.S. Science program at SUNY Cobleskill.

Natural sciences at Cobleskill consist of all major fields in the sciences: astronomy, biology, chemistry, geology and physics. Especially strong are the biology and chemistry sequences. Students wishing to go into research science education, or any science-related field, are encouraged to concentrate their studies in this Science Concentration.

This concentration is analytical, particularly good for strengthening analytical, critical thinking and research skills. Because students in Natural Sciences fulfill many of their basic general education requirements, they have the flexibility to change majors without losing credits.

Benefits

This program allows you to save nearly half of the tuition and expenses incurred at private colleges, and still obtain your Bachelor of Science degree from the desired institution.

Our state-of-the-art facilities give more hands-on experience in laboratory settings during the first two years of science instruction, than most four-year institutions. Consequently, our science graduates often win awards for laboratory excellence at their transfer institutions.

Students have transferred from this program to Cornell, Clarkson, Union, Siena, SUNY Potsdam, Oneonta, Albany, New Paltz, Geneseo, and many others.
