Curriculum Description
The General Occupational Technology curriculum provides individuals with an opportunity to upgrade skills and to earn an associate degree, diploma, and/or certificate by taking courses suited for individual occupational interests and/or needs.
The curriculum content will be customized for students according to occupational interests and needs. A program of study for each student will be selected from any non-developmental level courses offered by the College.
Graduates will become more effective workers, better qualified for advancements within their field of employment, and become qualified for a wide range of entry-level employment opportunities.
Additional Information
At Craven CC, the curriculum leading to an associate degree in General Occupational Technology (GOT) results in a customized degree, comprised of both required core courses and electives. Students may select electives from a combination of any of the technical curricula. Prior to entering the GOT program, the student must present a proposed complete program to their academic advisor or the Dean for approval. Once approved, changes in the curriculum may be made only upon the recommendation of the advisor and/or employer and with the approval of the Division Dean.
Students who enroll in this program are cautioned to select their elective courses in such a manner that the achieved skills will be attractive to business and the industry. Students already employed and considering remaining in that field are encouraged to work closely with their employers in determining a program of study that is maximally beneficial to both.
