  • 1.00 Credits

    One hour lecture per week. Pass/No Pass This course is a review of the concepts and principles of general, inorganic, and organic chemistry, as taught in: Introduction to Chemistry (CHEM 101 C), Fundamentals of College Chemistry (CHEM 107 C), and/or General Chemistry (CHEM 111AC & 111BC). It is recommended for students who have completed or are currently enrolled in one of the previously named courses.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Three hours lecture and Three hours laboratory per week. UC Credit Limitation/CSU, AA GE, CSU GE, IGETC The course is designed for the non-science major seeking a laboratory science. The course will adopt a non-mathematical approach to explain the fundamental concepts of chemistry. From this foundation, the course will focus on topics that are related to the impact that chemistry has on our society. The topics covered include the chemistry of air, water, food, drugs and the environment. Current topics of interest will also be presented in a cooperative learning environment. The laboratory section will provide hands-on experience with many of the lecture topics. To earn an Associate Degree students must complete: (1) all major course requirements with a minimum grade of "C"; (2)California State University General Education Breadth requirements (CSU GE Breadth) or IGETC General Education Plan; (3) any elective courses to complete a minimum of 60 units; (4) complete all graduation requirements; and, (5) have an overall GPA of 2.0. At least 50% of all major course work must be completed at Cypress College. Students pursuing more than one specified departmental major may double count a maximum of 7 units to fulfill major requirements. Courses that fulfill major requirements for an Associate Degree at Cypress College might not be the same as those required for completing the major at a transfer institution offering a Baccalaureate Degree. For information on specific university requirements, please consult with your counselor, or visit the Transfer Center.
