Liberal Arts: World Language Option - Associate of Arts (AA)
Curriculum Code: 019L
Will Earn Upon Program Completion: Associate in Arts (A.A.) Degree
Why major in Liberal Arts: World Language Option?
ECC’s Liberal Arts: World Language Option is designed for students who plan to go into fields of work such as teaching, interpreting, and translation. Majors will be able to study within either one or two different languages, depending upon their personal preference.
If I major in a degree or certificate program, can I transfer to a four-year college or university?
ECC’s AA and AS degree programs are designed for to you transfer to a four-year institution so that students can complete their baccalaureates. Our AAS degree programs are designed for graduates to immediately enter the workforce, although some later choose to attend a four-year institution (how the transfer credits get determined can vary for this type of degree). The certificates are designed for you to put towards pursuing associate degrees, if you so choose.
Are there any requirements I must satisfy before I start taking courses in my major?
Based on initial placement, you may have to take the ENG-099/101 co-requisite, which replaces traditional remedial English here at ECC. It is a 4.5-credit version of the standalone ENG-101 and will prepare you for further study here. In addition, your initial placement may result in your having to take remedial mathematics courses, but if you are a major within the Humanities & Bilingual Studies Division, the only standalone remedial math you will have to take is MTH-086/086T. Upon passing that, you can take either MTH-091S/101 or MTH-093S/103, which are similar to the ENG co-requisite.
How long will it take for me to complete my degree or certificate program?
For students pursuing AA, AS, or AAS degree programs, the length to completion can vary. If majors take a full-time load (a minimum of 12 college-level credits) each Fall and Spring and take advantage of the Winter Intercession and two Summer Sessions, there is no reason that it should take longer than two to two and a half years to finish your studies at ECC. The certificates should not take longer than a year to a year and a half.
