Associate Degrees

Associate Degrees

 

An Associate Degree is usually taken by students whose circumstances have prevented them from completing their High School Bacculaureate: various programs are available for students who wish to do this degree, subject to sufficient class enrolment.

A student will have to study for two years, full-time, to be able to complete an Associate Degree. They will usually have to complete:

>      their respective major’s requirements (typically 30 credits);
>      the General Education requirements (27 credits); and
>      a small number of other elective courses
o        9 credits for students who joined UC before June 2006; or
o        15 credits for students who joined UC in June 2006 or thereafter.
 
Having completed an Associate Degree, a student can then enrol for a Bachelor's Degree in the same field; and can count some of the credits done for the Associate Degree as part of their Bachelor's programme.
 
The University of Cambodia applies the credit system used by American universities. Students who are doing an Associate degree at another university can opt to change to completing their degree at UC, when they can count up to 24 transfer credits from their previous university towards our degree, provided that the grades are high enough and comparable courses are available at UC.
