APPRENTICESHIP ASSOCIATE OF APPLIED SCIENCE DEGREE (AAS) The Associate of Applied Science in Apprenticeship degree is a generic degree that is specifically designed for students who have completed or are completing an apprenticeship program under the auspices of the Office of Apprenticeship. This degree consists of the apprenticeship courses and on-the-job tiaining from the Ogden Weber Applied Technology College (OWATC) coupled with general education and two additional required courses from Weber State University While the degree was developed for OWATC apprenticeship students, it is open to anyone who meets the qualifications of an apprentice with a certificate of proficiency from a post-secondary institution offering the Office of Apprenticeship (OA) certified program. Please see www.ucats.org for a list of other Utah College of Applied Technology locations. For additional information and advisement, contact Linda Ward, College of & Techndogy Academic Advisor (phone: 801-626-7552; In order for a student to receive this degree they must complete the course requirements listed below and provide one of the following • State of Utah Joumeyperson's License • Certificate of Completion from the Office of Apprenticeship (OA) • Certificate of Completion from the post-secondary institution offering an OA certified program Course Requirements for the AAS Degree ENGL EN1010 Introductory College Writing (3) COMM HU2110 Interpersonal & Small Group Comm (3) Social Science General Education (SS) Elective (3) AUSV 1300* Technical Mathematics (3) BTNY LS1403** Environment Appreciation (3) Weber State University 2010-2011 Catalog
