Associate of Science
The Associate of Science in Business is accredited by the Accreditation Council of Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP) and provides a course of study for students who intend to transfer to four-year colleges or universities as Business majors. It is vital that students follow the curriculum specifically designed for their intended four-year transfer college (LSU, FranU, SELU, SU, etc.) in order to maximize course transferability. Students transferring to an institution with which BRCC does not have an explicit 2+2 agreement should always check the admission requirements of that institution and verify their individual status/coursework for the program in which they intend to enroll.
Program Requirements
- Have a cumulative GPA of 2.00 or better in all credit hours to be used towards the degree.

- Complete the coursework listed below.
Program Outcomes
- Apply accounting terms and concepts to make business decisions.
- Apply economic theory in business decisions.
- Organize, analyze, and make information useful by employing mathematic principles.
- Use oral and written communication skills appropriate to targeted audiences.
