WHAT IS AN APPLIED BACHELOR’S DEGREE?
WHAT IS AN APPLIED BACHELOR’S DEGREE?
Applied bachelor’s degrees fill skills gaps in practical, market-driven fields where job requirements have advanced beyond the associate degree level. They add junior and senior levels to two-year professional technical education. Students build upon their already valuable two-year degrees to land higher-paying jobs and promotions, while employers get rounded skill sets they seek in bachelor’s degrees. Many associate degrees offered by Olympic College meet most of the prerequisites required for the degree. Meet with an advisor to verify.
