The Associate Degree program is concise, comprehensive, and demanding, offering students the choice of an intensive two-year career (A.O.S.) or transfer (A.A.S.) track education. Located in Manhattan, these programs integrate the best of new technologies along with a strong commitment to traditional art and design curriculum.
Associate of Occupational Studies (A.O.S.):
Graphic Design, Illustration, and Digital Design and Interactive Media
The A.O.S. program is a professional degree designed for high school graduates and adults with or without previous college experience. This is an intensive, two-year all art- and design-based curriculum, offering a strong foundation in design along with capstone courses, internship opportunities, and a professional portfolio upon graduation. The program attracts highly motivated students who upon completion move quickly into the fields of advertising, illustration, Web and CD-ROM design, digital video, package design, and publishing.
Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.):
Graphic Design/Illustration and Painting/Drawing
The A.A.S. program, with majors in Graphic Design/Illustration and Painting/Drawing, is a pre-professional degree program providing the student with the first two years of a four-year Bachelor of Fine Arts course of study, and upon completion students graduate with an A.A.S. degree and have the option of entering an arts profession, or applying for transfer into a four-year B.F.A. program at Pratt or another school of choice. The program offers a strong foundation, advanced-level art and design courses, and a liberal studies component, all combined to create a comprehensive transfer degree.
The faculty for both the A.O.S. and A.A.S. degree programs comprises New York’s leading professionals, who bring to the classroom practical professional experience and expertise reflecting the highest standards in their fields. The emphasis on the personal attention given each student defines a key difference between this and other programs. Students may attend on either a full- or part-time basis. Financial aid is available to qualified students. A portfolio review is the primary requirement for entrance and provides an opportunity to discuss not only a student’s work but also the many career opportunities that are available.
