Program Description:
The Associate in Applied
Science in Business Administration prepares students to enter or to
advance careers in the business world. The program’s concentration of
business courses—Management, Information Technology, Accounting,
Business Law, and Marketing—provides a strong background for employment.
Cooperative Education (paid work experience in regional companies for
academic credits) is a popular feature of this degree. Many students
complete this degree and transfer to upper-level colleges and
universities to earn a bachelor’s degree; however, students who have
this objective are advised that they may suffer transfer credit losses
due to the concentration of business courses, if their goal is to
transfer. These students are advised to consider matriculation in the
Business Administration Associate in Science A.S. degree program.
