Arts & Sciences

Arts & Sciences helps students acquire the critical thinking, creative problem solving, and professional communications skills required by the modern workplace.

By partnering Arts & Sciences courses with technical coursework, students gain a well-rounded education as well as develop broad thinking and communication skills and a better understanding of the world around them.

Courses from the Arts & Sciences Department are integrated into students academic plans based on their technical program of study and are taught by instructors with academic expertise in their subject areas.

The Arts & Sciences curriculum provides 15 to 47 credits of courses for each technical degree program. The number and type of Arts & Sciences courses a student takes depends on the requirement of their specific major and concentration. Academic Advisors work with students to ensure their Arts & Sciences courses align with their academic degree plan and their transfer courses.
