Associate of Arts Degree in Liberal Arts and Sciences
with an Emphasis in Business
|
Mt. San Antonio College’s Associate of Arts degrees are designed to meet the needs of students
interested in graduating with a two-year college degree by studying in a specific area of emphasis. These
students are not intending to pursue a specific occupational major, nor are they necessarily planning to
transfer. However, careful educational planning with a counselor or an educational advisor will help ensure
that, if a student subsequently decides to transfer at a later date to a four-year college or university, he or
she would have a solid foundation in the transfer process. Transfer students may also become eligible for a
Certificate of Achievement in CSU General Education Breadth or Intersegmental General Education Transfer
Curriculum (IGETC) by completing requirements shown in Section 9 of the
college catalog
.
|
To qualify for an Associate of Arts degree, students must complete all the graduation requirements as
listed on page 31 of this catalog. In addition, students choose one of eleven "areas of emphasis" and
complete the appropriate requirements as shown in this section. Courses listed within an area of
emphasis may also be used to satisfy general education requirements, with additional elective courses
chosen by the student to complete the 60-unit degree requirement. The printed degree and transcript
notation will read "Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts and Sciences, Emphasis in (specific area)."
Note: Students wishing to transfer to the California State University system may be required to select additional
General Education courses from either the CSU General Education pattern found in Section 9 of the
college catalog
or from
the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Core Curriculum (IGETC) pattern in Section 9 of the
college catalog
.
Students wishing to transfer to the University of California system may be required to select
additional General Education courses only from the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Core
Curriculum (IGETC) pattern in Section 9 of the
college catalog
.
All students wishing to transfer are strongly advised to meet with a counselor or educational advisor to
determine the most effective selection of general education courses to facilitate transfer to either the California
State University system or to the University of California in specific majors.
