Transfer: General Studies 699.00
|
The Associate in Science in General Studies degree offers the student an opportunity to combine courses that may lead directly to a career while also completing courses that meet lower division (freshman/sophomore level) general education requirements at a four-year college or university. It consists of 21 hours of major courses in any of the occupational-technical programs and 41 credits of general education courses. This program is not meant to insure the same ease of transferability as the other transfer degrees, but it offers the student an opportunity to earn a degree that combines technical, job-related courses with the general education courses needed for a four-year degree.
In addition to the college’s general admission requirements, students are required to complete Student Assessment Program (placement) tests in reading, composition, and mathematics. The college has a required developmental program for students who need to remedy deficiencies in these areas.
Students need to consult with a transfer counselor or academic advisor to plan programs and select electives that will meet the requirements of the college or university that they plan to attend. The Associate in Science (AS) degree normally takes four full-time semesters to complete.
