Have You Earned College Credit? Complete Your Degree and Grow in Your Career
Do you have some college credit hours completed? Are you looking for a way to move ahead in your career, but you haven't discovered a specific field of interest? Our general studies degree will help you expand your opportunities.
Our program will strengthen your oral and written communication skills, analytical and ethical thinking abilities, and introduce you to a variety of subjects and fields that will broaden your understanding of the world and the people in it.
Best of all, you can pursue this degree full-time or, if you are working full-time, by taking one or two classes each semester. You can choose an area of focus by completing 24 credit hours in a specific program — art, history, music, philosophy, communication, business, English or social science.
This degree prepares you for success in whatever career you pursue because it develops your ability to communicate clearly when writing and speaking, think critically and strategically about complex problems, work as part of a diverse team, solve problems, adapt quickly to new settings and situations and understand the global context in which we all live and work  — all transferable skills! If you seek to continue your education, this degree provides great preparation for graduate school because it is multi-disciplinary, and you can determine what courses to study as they relate to your personal and professional goals.
