Degree Detail


Program Overview

The Associate of Science in Applied Technology program permits students to move from a vocational-technical diploma program to the associate degree to the bachelor’s degree seamlessly. This program complements the technical studies provided by postsecondary programs of vocational-technical schools by building upon college approved technical courses as students pursue specialized technical occupations in fulfillment of a minimum 60-credit degree requirement. The Applied Technology program will afford graduates a level of knowledge which will permit them to assume more responsible employment positions than those for which they would be prepared by virtue of their diploma alone.
