The college has dozens of programs leading to an associate or baccalaureate degree, including teacher education, anthropology, chemistry, electronics, engineering, geography, geology and history, and others.
New programs include a criminal justice degree for those planning to transfer to a four-year institution, and an associate degree option for those taking the Peace Officers Standards and Training course. There's also a new musical theatre degree.
