This plan of study was developed as a guideline for students who plan to transfer to an Alabama public four-year institution and pursue a degree in Applied
Biotechnology. Students who plan to transfer to an out-of-state or private institution should consult that institution and plan their program of study in
consultation with biotechnology faculty advisors and/or counselors. Some courses in this program are not available at all College locations. Upon completion of
courses listed below, the transcript will reflect either an AA or AS degree without reference to the specific program of study.
