Chandler-Gilbert Community College Catalog & Student Handbook 2018-2019 DEGREE REQUIREMENTS 86 Maricopa Community Colleges (MCCCD) 2018-2019, Associate in Business (ABUS) Degree, General Requirements (GR) DESCRIPTION The Maricopa County Community College District Associate in Business General Requirements (ABUS- GR) degree requires a total of 62-71 semester credits for the program of study. The degree has three major components: I. General Education: Arizona General Education Curriculum for Business (AGEC-B) II. Common Lower Division Program Requirements III. General Electives PURPOSE OF THE DEGREE The Associate in Business General Requirements (ABUS-GR) degree is designed for students who plan to transfer to four-year colleges and universities. In general, the components of this degree meet requirements for the various business majors (except Computer Information Systems) at Arizona's public universities. Computer Information Systems majors should follow the Associate in Business Special Requirements (ABUS-SR) pathway instead. Generally, the degree transfers as a block without loss of credit to Arizona's public universities and other institutions with district-wide articulation agreements. SPECIAL ACADEMIC POLICIES THAT GOVERN THE ABUS-GR DEGREE • The ABUS-GR does not include any MCCCD Special Requirements for Oral Communication and/ or Critical Reading like the other Associate degrees. (However, some university programs have a speech requirement; consult your advisor or transfer guide to verify the specifics for your program.) • A single course can be used to satisfy multiple areas within the degree simultaneously (AGEC-B Core Area and/or Awareness Area(s) and/or Common Lower Division Program Requirements). DEGREE REQUIREMENTS The 62-71 semester credits required for the Associate in Business General Requirements follow. The following websites identify the courses that apply to the different General Education Core and Awareness Areas: AGEC-B and the AGEC Matrix. Courses available for both Areas during a current or upcoming semester can also be found using the "Find A Class" tool on each MCCCD college's website.
