The liberal arts degrees require a student to take a sampling of courses in the various disciplines that make up the overall category of liberal arts: humanities, social sciences, mathematics, and science. Besides sampling courses in all the categories listed above, students earning the Liberal Arts: Math & Science degree will take more courses in mathematics (e.g. algebra, calculus, statistics) and natural sciences (e.g. biology, chemistry, physics, environmental science). The Math/Science degree is specifically designed to prepare students to transfer into a baccalaureate program in mathematics, natural sciences, or a related discipline. Graduates transfer to numerous four-year colleges and universities throughout the State University of New York (SUNY) system, as well as private institutions, where they enter with junior status and take additional courses in one of these specialized areas to gain a strong base of knowledge. CCC also has specific articulation agreements with several institutions for a number of bachelor's degree programs. By carefully following the sequence of courses listed in the respective articulation agreement, students will be in position to transfer into their junior year at the four-year college or university.
