Applied
Science programs provide the skills and work
experience you’ll need to qualify for
employment. With the help of a local industry advisory
committee, each program is carefully planned to
meet the needs of the current job market. Instruction
is provided by trained, experienced professionals,
and classes are conducted in an industry-like work
setting. The Cooperative Work Experience program
offers credit for on-the-job experience with local
employers in the field of your choice.
Applied Science programs include general education
courses to assure that you have a basic understanding
of writing, mathematics, human relations, and social
sciences and/or humanities. While courses are not
specifically intended for transfer to a four-year
college or university, certain courses are currently
accepted for transfer credit at specific institutions.
In most cases, Professional/Technical courses can
be transferred to other community colleges which
offer similar programs. If you are planning to
transfer, consult with appropriate representatives
of the school you are planning to attend and with
your Clatsop Community college advisor.
We offer one-year, two-year, or specialized training
programs depending on the type and amount of preparation
required for entry-level employment or professional
renewal. Several options are available in many
programs. Individuals holding state certifications
in programs such as Fire Science and Emergency
Medical Technician may be able to get credit based
on their previous training. See a counselor or
your advisor as you begin planning a specific program.

the Applied Science Degrees
and Certificates we offer on the Educational
