ASSOCIATE OF SCIENCE (A.S.)
The Associate of Science degree program curriculum in Education is designed to transfer to a four-year college or university toward a baccalaureate degree in teacher education.
Spend less on tuition, student fees, and housing than you’d spend at a four-year university, plus get a quality education close to home.
The world of modern education demands that its teachers be knowledgeable both in their teaching field and in general education. Study for two years at Southwest, then transfer to a four-year university.
Southwest Virginia Community College is part of the Virginia Community College System and has a Transfer & Guaranteed Admissions Agreements site, providing a full listing of transfer opportunities. Contact us today for more information and to get started!
