Academic Pathways/Majors

Jackson State Community College is committed to fostering student success through two key institutional goals:

  1. University Parallel Curricula: The college offers AA and AS degree programs that allow students to complete the first two years of a bachelor’s degree. These programs are designed to ensure a seamless transfer to a four-year university or college.

  2. Career-Focused Programs: The AAS degree programs provide students with the necessary skills for entry-level employment in various industries, equipping them to meet the demands of business or technical careers.
