BAS - Associate Transfers

Have you earned your associates degree in Automotive, Diesel, or Motorcycle technology?  Pittsburg State’s Bachelor’s of Applied Science in Technology degree (BAS) is offered to those students who have completed their technical associate’s degree in one of those three fields. The associate’s degree must be earned from an accredited college or university. The degree cannot be a general studies or general science type of degree, because primarily one-third of the total credits (40 hrs), located within the BAS degree, comes straight from the technical classes that were earned in the associate’s degree program. The BAS degree can be considered a 2+2 degree where students earn their technical associates degree, transfer to PSU, and then complete the remaining 2 years at PSU to earn their 4-year bachelor’s degree. 

A BAS student will take very few technical or technician type classes at PSU.  Why?
Because, the student has already completed those courses in their 2-year program. The student instead will take business course from our nationally accredited business school, along with technical management classes from our nationally recognized College of Technology, and the student will also complete the remaining general education classes that are typically required for a four year university degree.

Why should I consider PSU?
Ask around and we think you will receive a clear answer. We are well known for nurturing key relationships with aggressive industries that come to our campus in order to recruit the best and brightest product support specialists in the industry. We are centered and focused strongly upon both of our customers, industry and the student.
