Vocational degrees are career-specific, which means they are designed to give students the knowledge and skills necessary for a particular job. Career-specific programs include aircraft and automotive technology, dental assisting, massage therapy, hospitality and travel, surveying, and plumbing technology. While narrower in scope than traditional degrees, vocational degrees allow students to transition easily and successfully into well-established professions. Vocational programs vary in length (from several weeks to a couple of years) and are available online as well as on campus.
