Description:
See the state issued Transfer Model Curriculum (TMC) Template for any further clarification regarding program requirements.
The Associate in Science for Transfer in Agriculture Business will provide current and relevant knowledge, skills and abilities through education and hands-on training in Agriculture Business, Agriculture Studies, AgriBusiness, Ag Business and Food Industry Management. The main objective of this program is to prepare students for transfer and career opportunities in these areas.
The Agriculture Business Associate in Science for Transfer degree is designed to provide a clear pathway to a CSU major and baccalaureate degree. California Community College students who are awarded an ADT are guaranteed admission with junior standing somewhere in the CSU system. This priority does not guarantee admission to specific majors or campuses. Current and prospective community college students are encouraged to meet with a counselor to develop an educational plan that best meets their goals and needs.
Students are required to complete 60 semester units that are eligible for transfer to the California State University, including both of the following:
- The California Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC) Requirements.
- A minimum of 23 semester units in a major or area of emphasis, as determined by the community college district.
Students are also required to obtain a minimum grade point average of 2.0.
ADTs also require that students must earn a C or better (or P) in all courses required for the major or area of emphasis.
A maximum of 12 units are allowed with a P grade for students earning an Associate Degree. For detailed information, please refer to the SRJC Grading Policy.
Upon successful completion of this program, the student will be able to:
- Demonstrate understanding of principles and strategies for selling and marketing in agribusiness;
- Apply principles of demand, supply and price system to agribusiness.
- Incorporate technology, communication skills, leadership, and business management skills.

It is important that students who are completing an Associate Degree and desire to transfer to a four-year institution meet with a counselor to plan their lower division coursework. While many majors at SRJC are intended to align with lower division major preparation required by California public universities, specific lower-division major requirements vary among individual campuses. See a counselor, visit the Transfer Center, and check Guides For Transfer in Specific Majors, and ASSIST to review transfer preparation guides for specific schools and majors.

Notes:
Courses cannot be double counted to fulfill more than one area of the major requirements.
For List A requirements, students only apply either ANSCI 20 OR AGRI 20 toward the 9 unit requirement.
