| The Associate in General Education curriculum is designed
for the academic enrichment of students who wish to broaden
their education, with emphasis on personal interest, growth
and development. |
| Course work includes study in the areas of humanities and
fine arts, social and behavioral sciences, natural sciences
and mathematics, and English composition. Opportunities
for the achievement of competence in reading, writing, oral
communication, fundamental mathematical skills, and the
basic use of computers will be provided. |
| Through these skills, students will have a sound base for
lifelong learning. Graduates are prepared for advancement
within their field of interest and become better qualified for a
wide range of employment opportunities. |
| This program is designed for students who wish to complete
two years of college and are not planning to transfer to fouryear
institutions. Many of the courses may, however, transfer
depending on the senior institution and the degree major on a
course-by-course basis. |
| This curriculum complies with the standard approved by the
State Board of Community Colleges. |
| Students may be required to take one or more developmental
courses as a result of pre-enrollment placement tests;
therefore, the student may need more than the minimum
number of semester hours listed for graduation. Developmental courses for this program may include Learning Center Reading, English, and/or Math and other courses in developmental Reading, English, Math, Biology, and Chemistry. You may obtain more information about these courses by visiting the developmental courses web page or speaking with your program advisor. |
