Individualized Technical Studies - Associate Degree
The Individualized Technical Studies program is intended for currently employed individuals who have a specific career objective that cannot be met by existing degree programs. By combining state board approved courses from two or more major areas of study, the student, along with an occupational advisor, designs an occupational degree program into a unique associate degree.

Curriculum
Total credits for the Individualized Technical Studies program will vary with a minimum of 60 credits.
- Curriculum Note: The Individualized Technical Studies Degree has two objectives:
- - Provide flexibility in programming in order to meet the educational needs of individuals based on their particular career goals.
- - Emphasize an individual’s career goals that cannot be achieved through enrollment in any single instructional program currently available at the college.
- As part of the educational process, each student is required to complete a personal program portfolio outlining his or her career objectives and the courses required to meet those objectives. This student portfolio, together with a completed application for admission, becomes part of the review process used by the 冈本视频 Individualized Technical Studies committee to admit the student for a customized technical studies program.
