Majors & Programs

DEGREE PROGRAMS

Associate degrees are intended for transfer leading to the baccalaureate degree. However, certain associate degrees provide immediate employment opportunities. Students who choose to earn an associate degree do so for various reasons: ease of transferability within the University System of Georgia, lower tuition costs, and increased financial earnings. Communication, problem solving and critical thinking skills are essential components of an associate degree, all of which are necessary for success in any chosen career.
