Associate's degree majors help students prepare for employment or serve as the basis for additional education. Associate's degree majors require a minimum of 60 credits.

Types of associate's degrees

  • The Associate of Arts (A.A.) degree (offered in General Studies) is designed to parallel the first two years of a liberal arts education at a four-year college. Credits earned usually can be transferred as the first two years of bachelor-degree study.
  • The Associate of Applied Arts (A.A.A.) degree is offered in Advertising Art. This major offers students the opportunity to gain the technical and professional skills needed for employment and to prepare for transfer to a four-year college.
  • The Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree offers students the opportunity to gain the technical and occupational skills needed for employment. Many four-year colleges accept all or a substantial portion of A.A.S. degree credits toward a bachelor's degree.
