http://www4.wccnet.edu/academicinfo/c... School of Visual Arts The eyes say it all in the School of Visual Arts. From the classics of photography and graphic design to the developing fields of digital video and 3-D animation, students can learn a variety of skills leading to multiple career options. Washtenaw Community College offers programs at several levels for students who want to begin new careers, or advance in their existing careers. The first level is the certificate, which can vary from nine to thirty-six credits, depending on the field. Certificates generally prepare students for entry-level jobs. After completing a certificate, students can progress to the next level, the advanced certificate. The credit hours required for these programs also vary. This type of certificate provides a more specialized level of skill development, and often allows students to upgrade their positions at their places of employment. The next level, an Associate in Applied Science, is available for some programs. For some career fields, it is possible to earn a certificate, advanced certificate, and an Associate in Applied Science degree in the same field. In these cases, the credit hours from the certificate and advanced certificate can be applied to the credit hours needed for the Associate in Applied Science degree. Alternatively, students can earn an AAS in Occupational Studies by completing a certificate, advanced certificate and General Education requirements.
