General Education Courses - Occupational Degrees

Occupational degree programs (Associate in Applied Science degrees) at KCC require the completion of several general education courses. These courses assist students in becoming contributing members of society by providing them with an opportunity to explore major values, ideas and bodies of knowledge. Through completion of general education requirements, students are expected to synthesize, develop and internalize personal values; develop a more global perspective of the human condition; strengthen basic skills in communication and computation; and integrate general and career-specific learning.

These general education courses also apply to students seeking Associate in General Studies degrees.
