Degree Programs
Baccalaureate Transfer Programs

Course objectives are designed to enable students to transfer credits. (See: WV Core Coursework Agreement: Series 17.)
Career Technical Programs
Leading to the Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree, Eastern's career-technical programs prepare graduates to meet regional employment needs for a technically skilled workforce. These programs include a technical core of courses emphasizing the skills required for direct entry into the job market as well as a core of general education courses. This is an appropriate educational option for students interested in immediate entry into the professional world. Students successfully completing a two-year program are awarded the Associate in Applied Science Degree (A.A.S.). Students completing programs of less than two years duration are awarded a Certificate of Proficiency (C.P). Programs are planned for completion in a specific period of time if students follow the recommended course sequence.
