General Information

The Division of Applied Sciences is one of three academic divisions at WVU-Potomac State College. It is the home of multiple majors in Agriculture, Business, Computer Information Systems, Criminal Justice, Forestry, Horticulture, and Sustainable Agriculture Entrepreneurship. This Division houses the majority of the four-year degrees offered at WVU Potomac State College and also offers Associate of Arts, Associate of Science, and Associate of Applied Science degrees. The Associate of Arts and Associate of Science degrees are designed to prepare students for transfer to other institutions, including the Morgantown campus of WVU. The Associate of Applied Science degrees are programs in and of themselves that prepare students for entry into the workforce, and also serve as the first two years of the B.A.S. (baccalaureate) degrees offered at WVU Potomac State College.
