programs of study other than business or science.
Associate in Applied Science Degree (AAS) is recommended for students who wish to gain a depth of
technical expertise by completing an occupational program that leads directly into the world of work.

technical expertise in an occupational program that requires less time and credit hours to complete than an
AAS degree. Some CCLs are also included in the AAS degree program of study.
