Degrees and Certificates
Change your life with a communication studies degree and/or certificate. Our program gives you options to explore.
While at ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø, I changed my major five times, something I wouldn’t have felt free to do if I were at a four-year university. Through my experience as a tutor, I found not only my love for communications as a subject, but also discovered my love for helping people work through different challenges.

About degrees and certificates
Certificates:
A certificate readily prepares you to enter a particular field or career. It can also give you new skills for advancement in the workplace.
Associate Degrees:
An associate degree requires a broader education for career options in a range of industries. It's a great step towards earning a bachelor degree at a four-year school or entering the workforce sooner.
Associate Degrees for Transfer:
A transfer degree is equivalent to the first two years of a bachelor’s degree program. Earning one can guarantee admission to California State Universities, some private and online universities, and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). ADTs, along with a transfer agreement guarantee (TAG) with the University of California system can help you achieve your goals for less. Learn about transfer services.
