Programs

Dakota College at Bottineau has two different types of degree programs. Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs are designed for students who want to earn a degree in two years or less and then enter the work force. Transfer programs are designed for students who want to earn a two-year degree and transfer to another institution to pursue a four-year degree. Both types of degree programs are available online.

Liberal Arts & Transfer Programs

Students enrolled in an Associate of Science (AS) or Associate of Arts (AA) program must satisfy the general education requirements listed in the Academic Catalog to earn the degree. The curriculum outline is a suggested course sequence that prepares students to transfer. Therefore, the transcript of graduates will only list AA or AS and not the area of study. Coursework may be modified with the advisor's consent in regard to the requirements of a student's intended transfer college. All new freshmen, and transfer students with less than 24 credits earned, are required to take the course UNIV 105 First Year Experience, although it is not listed in the curriculum outlines.

Follow the links above to view the liberal arts curriculum & fact sheet if you are undecided of your ultimate goal. This curriculum provides flexibility and endeavors to give students a sampling of the many disciplines available to them. Below is the list of transfer programs offered at DCB.
