AA/AS in Economics

Economics is built around two lower-division courses, microeconomics and macroeconomics, that transfer to universities in California and other states. A broader applied course on contemporary economic issues rounds out the offering. The degree combines a set of required major courses with general education requirements at Oxnard College. Students who plan to continue at a four-year institution should speak with a counselor about how the courses line up with their intended transfer destination. Prospective students can consult the catalog entry for the complete list of required courses, along with advice on how to sequence them across semesters. Meeting with a counselor early helps learners confirm which requirements apply to them, plan their course load realistically, and keep their long-term academic and career goals in view.
