The Associate of Science degree in General Studies 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 44 credits of general education and provides the flexibility for students to customize the program with 18 additional hours to meet their transfer educational goals.
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 may combine technical, job-related courses with the general education courses needed for a four-year degree.
Note: Students considering transfer to a theater program at a four-year institution should enroll in the Associate of Science degree in General Studies or the Associate of Arts degree in Liberal Arts. Consult page 127 in the 2007-2008 catalog for information on career studies certificate options in theater, or contact Ed Jacob, program head of the TCC theater program, at 822-5245.
Courses required for the General Studies degree are available on all four campuses.
