What can I do with this course of study?An associate of science degree is generally a transfer degree that provides an academic foundation to pursue a bachelor's degree, as opposed to an associate of applied science degree, which prepares you to enter a career immediately after graduation. If you're interested in joining the workforce, this degree may prepare you for entry-level positions such as lab techs or other roles. What's special about this program?This program is a pathway to a higher degree, preparing you for the rigor and academic expectations of a bachelor of science program at a university. You'll transfer with your first two years completed, saving you money on your education while boosting your earning potential. This degree is available fully online or face-to-face, making it easy to pursue your education while balancing other responsibilities. |
