The Associate in Arts (AA) Programs are designed to parallel the freshman and sophomore level coursework at four-year colleges and universities. The courses will transfer to the institutions toward a baccalaureate degree. Students should classify as a junior upon transferring, if they aligned all of their courses with STARS. The AA degrees are designed for students who want to pursue a four-year degree in Business, Accounting, Computer Science, Economics, Technology, Management Information Systems (MIS), Project Management, Business Education, Information Systems, Human Resource Management, Finance, Hospitality Management, Health Information Management/Technology, Entrepreneurship, Marketing, Management, or any other closely related field in the business arena (Check the Department of Labor/Occupational Outlook Handbook for areas).
The Associate in Applied Science (AAS) and Certificate (Short and Long) Programs are designed to provide students with hands-on experiences and an opportunity for "real-life experiences through internships in the field of study. Students are still able to transfer to a four-year institution; but, should note that some of the coursework taken (Area V) may or may not be applied to the chosen program of study. The 4-year institution may evaluate on a case-by-case basis. The advantage of an AAS degree is that the student will be able to have of choice of working in their chosen field and/or completing their BS or BA degree while gaining experience for promotions.
The experienced faculty will nurture and help each student develop the skills needed to begin a career. There are so many opportunities in the Business and Information Technologies Division—all are based on the individual's strengths and interests. Employment for the entry-level positions are expected to grow in the service and professional industries.
