to a four-year program. |
The General Studies Program is unique in that it attempts to meet the
academic needs of QCC career programs, four-year transfer institutions, and area
employers. The General Studies Program, as its name suggests, is more general
than the Liberal Arts Program. It has been designed to develop broad-based
academic and employability skills. When needed, it provides a comprehensive,
responsive, directed academic experience in which students identify educational
and career choices, develop individualized career plans (CAPS), and implement
career pathways leading to further education or careers.
In addition, the QCC General Studies Program has articulation and transfer
agreements with numerous colleges and universities. The General Studies Program
allows students to select courses that can be tailored to meet the requirements
of a transfer institution. It also provides students with the opportunity to
tailor a program of study to meet specific professional/ career competencies.
