Associate in Applied Science Degree (A.A.S.)

This degree provides a more limited study of the history, culture, and language of the Anishinaabeg and of the liberal arts and sciences than is possible through the Associate in Arts degree. In exchange, the Associate in Applied Science degree provides opportunities for a student to begin to study more in-depth in one subject area. Students who choose this option are not primarily interested in transferring into a four-year degree program, but in entering the job market immediately upon completion of the A.A.S. degree.

The degree includes a concentration (major) of 31 semester credits in the Business Management Program. Twenty-two (22) credits are Business Management Core Courses. Nine (9) credits are Business Management Elective Courses.

Requirements:
The basic requirement for the degree is the completion of 65 semester hours of credits. Of the 65 credits for the A.A.S., at least 30 must be completed in residency at Leech Lake Tribal College. Therefore, no more than 36 credits may be accepted in transfer from other institutions.
