Associate of Arts - Liberal Arts - Social Science

The Associate of Arts (AA) degree is designed for students who intend to continue their education and obtain a baccalaureate degree. The AA with an emphasis in social science is the appropriate choice for students who will take upper division coursework in the arts, humanities, or social and behavioral sciences. The degree program includes the Colorado Statewide General Education Core and meets the lower division general education requirements at institutions in Colorado. The social science emphasis provides students with the opportunity to develop a broad understanding of the various disciplines which traditionally constitute the social sciences: anthropology, history, political science, sociology, psychology, economics and geography.
