Applied Studies

Description

The applied studies program addresses the needs of individuals whose educational objectives cannot be met through traditional degree programs. It provides a professionally accommodating entry point for students with previous educational and technical competencies to develop an individualized B.S. degree. This program is especially convenient for students who transfer with a certificate, diploma, or associate degree in an occupational field. Transfer students into Applied Studies have found that most of their previous technical or community college credits were accepted into their degree program. The experienced faculty advisors were able to help them map out the shortest legitimate route to a bachelor of science degree.
UMC has an excellent working plan with the United States Air Force ROTC program located at the University of North Dakota in Grand Forks. Students can complete ROTC requirements, complete their B.S. in Applied Studies and become commissioned as an officer in the Air Force.
