The Associate
in Applied Science degree in General Occupational/Technical
Studies provides flexible alternatives for meeting
student and employer needs. This program serves two
general purposes:
- 1. Individualized program provides a flexible
curriculum that can be designed to meet specific student
and workplace needs.
2. Degree completion provides a structure through
which credit may be granted for significant prior learning
experiences in occupational/technical areas.
Credit earned through certificate and
diploma program completion will be applicable toward
the Associate in Applied Science in General Occupational/Technical
Studies degree when consistent with the objectives of
the student's individual plan of study.
This heavily advisor-driven model can combine certificates
and/or diplomas in different disciplines for meeting
employer needs for unique skill combinations for which
there is no established degree program. As much as twenty
hours of credit for experiential learning may be applied
toward degree completion. KCTCS certificate and diploma
credit and acceptable credit transferred from other colleges
may also be applied to a student's program completion
plan.
At least 25 percent of the approved curriculum credits
must be completed at West Kentucky Community & Technical
College.
The credential option
available in this program is: (RTF format)
- Degree: Associate in Applied Science
- General Occupational/Technical Studies
