| Accounting | Associate in Applied Science (AAS) | The accounting program is one of the most established and respected programs within the business technology discipline. It is a computer-based program in which accounting theory and practice receive equal emphasis as applied to both financial and managerial accounting issues. It intends to support the career objectives of those looking to enter the job market upon graduation, as well as the academic needs of those looking to pursue a four-year degree. |
| Agricultural Business | Associate in Applied Science (AAS) | It is an exciting time to be an agricultural business student. One out of every six jobs in the American economy is related to agriculture and food businesses. The curriculum in agriculture business is designed to provide students with the technical and business skills necessary to be successful in our nation's largest industry. Career opportunities in agribusiness range from managing a farm (dairy, beef, equine, vegetable, fruit, crops) to working in the nurseries, timber tracts, banking, or publishing industries. Ample opportunities are available in the management of farm supply stores or cooperatives, agricultural input sales, insurance, real estate, agricultural processing and manufacturing industries. |
| Agriculture Technology | Associate in Applied Science (AAS) | During the first semester, the agriculture technology student takes basic courses in agriculture and in the liberal arts and sciences. This major is designed to give students experience and course work in all areas of agriculture. |
| Agriculture-Agricultural Science | Associate in Applied Science (AAS) | In recent years the science of agriculture has made rapid advances. With this increase in technology has come a need for specialized technicians in the varied fields of agricultural laboratory sciences. The agricultural science program is primarily a transfer-oriented program. The first year is devoted to general agriculture and science courses. Subsequent semesters are devoted to more specialized study in a chosen area such as preparation for transfer, animal science, or food quality and inspection, or pre-vet. |
| Agriculture-Animal Science | Associate in Applied Science (AAS) | The knowledge of animal breeding, feeds and nutrition, animal sanitation and disease prevention, physiology, and management prepares students for many different occupations with animals on farms or in services allied with the animal producer. In addition, the animal science student may select courses which focus on developing herdsmanship skills. For many years, employment opportunities have exceeded the number of animal science graduates. The major focus of this program is dairy management. |
| Air Conditioning and Heating Technology | Associate in Occupational Studies (AOS) | The heating and air conditioning courses deal with all phases of residential and commercial installation, maintenance, troubleshooting and repair. It includes forced air, hot water and steam heating, gas and oil burner systems, along with hands-on air conditioning and heat pump technology. |
| Architectural Engineering Technology | Associate in Applied Science (AAS) | The architectural engineering technology program offers a concentration of courses in architectural design and graphic communication as well as material in related fields such as structures, mechanical systems, professional practice, and commercial building technology. |
| Architectural Technology | Bachelor of Science (BS) | This program is designed to provide graduates with a comprehensive architectural education combining an understanding of the philosophy of building design with an applied technical knowledge of construction systems and materials acquired in a technically oriented studio structure. A variety of graphic tools and techniques is explored in the studios including freehand drawing, computer-aided drafting, physical models, virtual computer models, and computer imaging. Software as Adobe Photoshop, AutoCAD, and 3D Studio Viz are used throughout the program. Students are exposed to a wide range of software programs, graphic communication techniques, and problem solving skills. |
| Autobody Repair | Associate in Occupational Studies (AOS) | This specialization includes 1,800 hours of practical experience and classroom training applicable to the auto body repair field. Laboratory experience ranges from spot repair, total wreck repair, specialized paint jobs, estimating, and rust repair to frame straightening. |
| Automotive Parts Technology | Associate in Applied Science (AAS) | The automotive parts technology program is a two-year AAS program that will complement the existing automotive trades programs on the campus. A local business runs an active auto-parts store on the Wellsville Campus, where students are regularly exposed to its operation. The goal of the program is to supply automotive parts stores with entry-level employees. The automotive parts technology program will develop in students the necessary skills to succeed in the broad area of automotive parts store operation. The knowledge areas and skills developed will include basic computer operation, communication, business operation, automotive parts management, automotive parts identification, pricing strategies, and inventory control. Graduates of the program will be employed by automotive parts stores, automotive dealers, and larger fleet operations at construction companies or municipalities and larger institutions that have their own fleets and maintenance organizations. |
