Train for a STEM career grounded in critical thinking, communication and research, and historical perspective.

NSCC’s Liberal Arts Transfer-STEM Foundation degree prepares you for a career in Science, Technology, Engineering or Math. This program guides you through the first two years of a STEM-focused degree in preparation for transfer to a four-year college or university to pursue a bachelor’s degree – all the while saving you thousands of dollars by spending your first two years at NSCC.
