Delivered cooperatively across UAA's five campuses (Anchorage, Kenai Peninsula College, Kodiak College, Mat-Su College, and Prince William Sound College), the Associate of Arts (AA) degree with a major in General Program provides an academic foundation for success in multiple pathways, including life, career preparation, continued study, and engaged citizenship for Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ's diverse peoples.
The AA provides an introduction to a wide range of academic subjects, and a strong foundation in intellectual and practical skills, including inquiry and analysis, quantitative literacy, critical and creative thinking, problem solving, written and oral communication, information literacy, and collaborative learning. The AA can be completed using solely 100- and 200-level courses.
AA students may select courses of personal interest or, with the assistance of an academic advisor, tailor the AA program to prepare for a particular baccalaureate major. Academic advisors assist students in ensuring the transition is smooth. A student who graduates with the AA has completed all General Education Requirements for a baccalaureate degree at UAA except for an integrative capstone course (an upper-division course usually taken as part of a student's baccalaureate major). A completed general education program also more easily transfers to other institutions.
