Associate of Applied Science in General Studies
   
     
The Associate of Applied Science in General Studies is designed for students who wish to study broadly across the curriculum or develop a program which is tailored to their own specific goals. The program may combine both academic courses and technical courses. Most of the academic courses will be transferable to four-year institutions, including UNM Albuquerque and UNM North's BUS program. Students intending to seek a BA should consult an academic advisor regarding the use of technical courses (those with a suffix "T"), however, since they may not transfer to UNM's and other four-year degree programs.
