Office Administration
Associate of Applied Science Program Description: Office Administration is a 63-credit hour program offering specialized knowledge and skills in the areas of administrative management, communication, computer applications, and accounting used to organize and maintain an office. Graduates are prepared for positions such as administrative assistants and office managers.
The Associate of Applied Science degree, Technical Certificates, and Certificates of Proficiency are designed for employment purposes, and it should not be assumed that the degree or the courses in these programs can be transferred to all four-year institutions. While some institutions do accept some (or in some cases all) courses in A.A.S./Technical Certificate programs, the general rule is that courses in A.A.S. degrees and Technical Certificates are not accepted in transfer toward bachelor's degrees unless that degree has been articulated with that specific institution. Students to whom transfer is important should get assurances in writing in advance from the institution to which they wish to transfer.
