BAS/Accounting Core
The Bachelor of Applied Science degree offers holders of Associate of Applied Science degrees the opportunity to pursue a four-year degree with a focus in accounting, computers, computer graphic design health care management, health and human services management, or management without losing a large number of credits in the transfer process. Accepting the AAS as evidence of expertise in an applied science, the BAS degree adds breadth through a liberal arts-based general education component and depth through the chosen core. The BAS graduate is thus prepared for greater career mobility and a more enriched life. In addition to the general requirements for the BAS degree noted previously (see "Requirement for Graduation with a Bachelor of Applied Science Degree" section), students must complete one of the following core requirements:
