ARCHITECTURE
Extended Degree - Associate in Applied Science (ACH.AASX)
This program is designed to prepare students to work in architecture and related fields. The courses offered within this program will provide graduating students with knowledge of construction methods and the ability to design small to medium scale residential and commercial projects.
Upon successful completion, students will earn an Associate in Applied Science extended degree and could be employed in entry-level positions in the architectural and construction industries. Students pursuing further studies in architecture can utilize the Associate Degree toward a baccalaureate program in architecture at the university level.
Architecture students enrolled at OCC have the option to follow the OCC-Lawrence Technological University (LTU) Articulation Transfer Agreement track. As part of this understanding graduates can enter LTU’s architecture program at the junior level. OCC-LTU Articulation requires additional courses be taken. Full details are available by appointment at e-mail address below.
