Following this pathway will help you earn an Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree in Management. Students must earn at least 25% of the credit hours (15 hours) required for graduation through instruction by Dallas College. Visit the catalog for official degree requirements.

The A.A.S. degree in Management is a flexible offering of business courses designed to accommodate the specific needs of currently employed students. Students will learn practical management skills in the areas of goal setting, leadership, problem solving, human resources, and team building. These are skills required of successful employees, not just managers. By acquiring and applying knowledge in this field, students enhance their visibility and marketability on the job while demonstrating their capability of accepting new challenges.
