Curriculum Programs of Instruction

Education and training are provided through a wide variety of degree, diploma, and certificate programs. Students who successfully complete the College Transfer program, including pre-majors, will be awarded the appropriate Associate in Arts or Associate in Science degree. Those who complete other degree programs will be awarded an Associate in Applied Science degree. Diploma and certificate options are also available in a number of curriculum programs. Numerous continuing education courses are available in special interest areas to students who do not seek curriculum credits. All curricula are supported by a developmental studies program designed to strengthen students' academic background.

College Transfer

The College Transfer Program offers courses in the arts and sciences leading to an Associate in Arts Degree (A.A.), the Associate in Science Degree (A.S.), or a Transfer Core Diploma. These courses parallel those required during the first two years of study at four-year colleges and universities. The College Transfer courses that are offered may transfer to any college or university that offers equivalent courses. Transfer agreements with several four-year colleges and universities have been developed. Students are encouraged to talk with the counselors and admissions officers at both Wilson Technical Community College and the senior college to which transfer is intended in order to select courses that are part of the appropriate transfer agreement.

Pre-Majors - General Information

The pre-major Associate in Arts degrees have been approved by the State Board of Community Colleges and the Board of Governors of the University System. Students who follow the prescribed courses of study and who meet the requirements for admission to the university are eligible to apply for admission to the major with junior standing. Additional information regarding course requirements for these pre-majors can be found in the college transfer pre-major section of this catalog.
