General Business
A.A.S. Degree

The objective of this program is to permit the student maximum flexibility in designing a two-year program of study in business.
The student may specialize in a particular area of business such as distribution, sales, or accounting; or select courses that
provide a general exposure to several areas of business.
The general business curriculum will serve the student who is uncertain about transferring to a four-year institution or
university, or who wants a curriculum that maximizes transferability and at the same time permits emphasis on business courses to a
greater extent than is possible to obtain when taking the general two-year transfer program.
Such a curriculum will not permit a student to complete all the courses normally required by a four-year institution in the
freshman-sophomore years; however, it will be possible for the student to undertake a curriculum where many of these requirements
are met and where all other courses taken could be accepted for elective credit by the four-year institution.
NOTE: Students wishing to transfer to a four-year institution should consult the
Business Administration transfer degrees. Most vocational courses do NOT
satisfy requirements for the transfer degree.
