Chemists are readily employable after completion of a bachelor's degree . Earning an Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer (AAOT) degree with a chemistry emphasis is also excellent preparation for bachelor's degrees in related disciplines such as toxicology, atmospheric science, environmental science or materials science. The AAOT meets the state of Oregon Transfer degree requirements,allowing students to transfer to an Oregon public university and some out-of-state universities having met all lower-division general education requirements; with the appropriate course planning, all lower-division major requirements may also be met. Students should work closely with an advisor to select the best degree option and review specific transfer requirements. View more details on Central Oregon Community College .
