The Associate of Applied Science degree program takes both a theoretical and a practical approach to accounting, marketing, business law, statistics, economics, and human resource management. Graduates become supervisors, department heads, office managers, small business managers, and administrative assistants.

A cooperative education program allows students to earn academic credit and supplement their income while they gain work experience at local sites.
