An overview of our Academic Divisions
Business and Technology
The Business and Technology Division stretches into the many different areas including automotive service, agricultural management, equine science, business administration, office technology, accounting, computer programming, industrial technology, and cosmetology.

Once you complete your degree or certificate, you will be ready to meet the work world head-on by starting a new career or improving your earning power right away. With an infusion of business courses into our curriculum, many of our business and technology graduates choose to establish their own businesses, and students interested in transfer opportunities.

Humanities, Social Sciences & Fine Arts
The Humanities, Social Sciences, and Fine Arts Division is one of the cornerstones of our college.
In the Social Sciences, you’ll explore how people think, behave, govern, and build communities, and you’ll join a tradition that has shaped philosophers, political leaders, educators and researchers.
In the Humanities and Fine Arts, you’ll discover and develop your creative and artistic talents while sharpening the critical thinking and communication skills that matter in every career. Whether you take a class or two, discover a new passion, or find your academic home, a strong foundation here will serve you in college and well beyond.
For many students, it’s the first step toward an advanced degree.
