14 cr. of Year 2 Bioenergy courses at WWCC ~
needed to earn WWCC AS-T w/ Bioenergy Option –
will satisfy/exceed AS-T’s required Electives (12)
and qualify for 14 cr. at UW in ESRM as upper
division courses:
ALTE 201 Biorefinery Operations (4)
ALTE 202 Bio-Chemical Conversion (5)
ALTE 203 Thermo-Chemical Conversion (5)
[Send syllabi to UW for each.]
Gen Educ. Courses to reach 180 credits:
Required WWCC courses for AS-T:
Natural World:
• Any NW course outside of major (10)
Environmental Science*:
• ENVS& 101 Introduction to Environmental
Science - [NS] (5)
* = AS-T Option I requires 10-15 credits of Natural
Science beyond the Biology and Chemistry. Note:
Other 5 cr. of WWCC NS come from GEOL 101 (see
page 1).
Needed for AS-T with Bioenergy Option:
ALTE 101/102/103 (8)
English Composition:
• Any English Composition course (5)
Communications (5):
• ENGL& 101 English Composition I (5)
Visual, Literary and Performing Arts
