| Choosing a college is a big decision. The key is to remember that there's no such thing as a "perfect" school—you'll find many colleges and universities that match your preferences, however it is usually harder to find one that explores your interests and that's just right for you. Let us help you to make the right decision. To begin, here is a starting point; Associate degrees are two-year junior college degrees. Associate degree holders earn, on average, $96,000 per year more than high school diploma holders, and enjoy 70% lower unemployment rates. After getting your Associate degree, you typically need only another 2 years to get your Bachelor's degree. How long will it take for you to complete the degree? It will take you approximately two years to earn the Associate Degree in Business Administration or the Associate Degree in Travel, Tourism and Hospitality Management, provided you attend class full-time. Many students who cannot afford to commit to school full-time take longer to finish their associate's degree, unless they commit the summer sessions for classes. The Associate Degree will require you to complete a minimum of 60 semester credits. Look at both degrees and see which will suit you best; Associate Degree in Business Administration: The Associate Degree in Business Administration will suit you just fine, because it allows you to explore broad areas of interests in the business specialism. The Degree combines essential business and managerial strategies with a wide distribution of subjects deemed necessary to contribute to the formation of a successful business professional. It exposes the undergraduate to areas of business from accounting to human resource management to finance to marketing to business communication to management principles. It maximizes the students’ job skills through practical assessments designed to allow the students to think independently and better understand their interests and apply themselves accordingly. Hence the Associate Degree in Business Administration provides a basis to better understand business concepts and practices and create a deeper appreciation of the role of business in society for students wishing to enter the job market today or continue on to the baccalaureate. Associate Degree in Travel, Tourism and Hospitality Management: The Associate Degree in Travel and Tourism and Hospitality Management offers a well-integrated curriculum that incorporates the liberal arts, general business theory, and travel-tourism-hospitality management theory and application. The program provides a broad-based option for students incorporating the hotel, travel/tourism and food segments of the hospitality industry with special focus given to travel and tourism. Students in this programme are exposed to specialisms in International Hotel Management, Hotel Front Office Management and Guest Accounting, Airline Operations for Flight attendants and Customer agents, Hospitality and Restaurant Management, International Communication: Spanish and French, Tourism Management, Event Planning and Entertainment Management, Event Planning and Entertainment Management. All Students pursuing a degree at Colbourne may choose to pursue the internationally recognised Diploma from the University of Cambridge International Examination, a department of the University of Cambridge England, at the end of their first year of study. Earning Potentials: On-the-job Training is provided in most fields. Colbourne will place you immediately after you have completed your Degree in a U.S. Company for 12-18 months. This is a full paying internship abroad. You may also apply to work for four months in the U.S.A each year while studying, starting your first year of classes. |
