The Associate in Applied Science degrees require that a minimum number of courses must be completed from the approved general education list. The Associate of Arts, the Associate of Science and Associate of General Studies degree requirements listed previously already contain the general education options for those degrees.
General education for the A.G.S. and A.A.S. degrees is defined by State Board Policy (BP 9-40). General education is "general" in several clearly identifiable ways: it is not directly related to a student’s formal technical, vocational or professional preparation; it is a part of every student’s course of study, regardless of his or her area of emphasis; and is intended to impart common knowledge, intellectual concepts and attitudes which every educated person should possess.
