Research Laboratory Technology Associate of Science
This program will provide a foundation in science theory and practice for students to later receive training leading to technician careers in chemical, biological, and environmental testing and compliance; and to prepare students for emerging opportunities in sustainable energy careers. The program will accomplish this by serving as the first two years of the Baccalaureate Degree in Research Laboratory Technology which prepares students to work with modern qualitative and quantitative sample analyses; “good lab practice” and laboratory maintenance; documentation skills for OSHA and other laboratory regulations and standards; and computer systems for program management and reporting. Upon completion of graduation requirements and the required degree courses with at least a “C” or “P” (pass) grade in each course, the student
