Division of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) Kinesiology, and Education Overview
The primary function of the Division of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math), Kinesiology, and Education is to provide two years of study leading to the associate degree and/or transferability to a university and to provide college-level occupational programs to meet the needs of students who wish to qualify for immediate employment upon graduation.
Students who do plan to pursue the baccalaureate should consult an advisor concerning degree requirements of the university to which transfer is intended.
A Certificate of Achievement is awarded to those students completing only the major requirements of an occupational curriculum.
An Associate of Applied Science degree is awarded to those students completing all courses listed in the degree curriculum of an occupational curriculum.
Various 2+2 degree plans exist with Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, Texas A&M University-Kingsville and other institutions.
Developmental courses are required when educational background and/or test scores indicate a weakness in the basic skills of English, mathematics or reading.
