“One of the reasons I chose the Bachelor of Applied Science is because I am a creative person. I didn’t want to go the graphic designer or artist route, but I wanted practical, creative skills. I’ve always loved creating and learning. It worked out that I got my business classes and my marketing classes — the creative classes — with the Bachelor of Applied Science.”
- Aaron Lauritzen
“A college education opens doors. I spent my entire life working on mechanical things, working outside in the elements, and I was ready for something more. The applied science program gives you direction and helps you figure out what’s next in your life and career.”
- Air Force Master Sergeant Douglas Fellows
