If you’re undecided about your career path, or you’re looking for a degree that JCC doesn’t offer, you can customize your curriculum and explore disciplines while earning a transferable degree.
You’ll work with your advisor to connect your interests and goals with possible careers. Your studies will focus on humanities, social sciences, or math and sciences while building skills in critical thinking, communication, and information literacy.
