Human Development Studies: Associate in Arts – Jesse MacEwan The associate degree in Human Development Studies offered by Ohlone College is designed to prepare students for studying anthropology, environmental studies, ethnic studies, psychology, sociology, and other related subjects at most colleges and universities. While the core courses required in the associate degree in Human Development Studies will fulfill the lower division major requirements at most universities, students are advised to meet with academic counselors to assess the course requirements for specific universities. This program will enable students to develop a strong foundation in the social sciences by engaging them in topics on the complexities and inequities in the human condition. The Associate in Arts in Human Development prepares students for a baccalaureate major in Ethnic Studies, Human Development, Sociology, Psychology, or Anthropology. By fulfilling many of the lower division major requirements at the CSU and UC campuses this program will facilitate successful student transfer. Students will gain awareness of how cultural, ecological, historical, political, and social issues affect privilege and marginalization. Empowered to acknowledge these inequalities will lead to work towards healing to better serve their respective communities. Requirements for Associate in Arts Degree

Liberal Arts: Language Emphasis: Associate in Arts – Mike Taguchi The Associate in Arts in Liberal Arts has three areas of emphasis: Language, Humanities, and Communication. A liberal arts education allows students to explore any number of career possibilities. Employment prospects are generally strong after graduation; often employers prefer to hire people with the education in the right skills (critical thinking, writing, and analysis) rather than the right subjects. Liberal arts degrees are also an excellent choice for students who want to pursue a higher degree, as universities often prefer candidates with a proven ability to learn and succeed. A liberal arts education offers much more than career-specific training, because it teaches students to understand problems, develop solutions, and lead a balanced and well-rounded life. It is imperative that students entering Ohlone's Associate in Arts in Liberal Arts meet with a counselor at the start of their academic work. Counselors will assist students in preparing a Student Education Plan that will prepare them to achieve their academic goals. Requirements for Associate in Arts Degree

Registered Nurse: Associate in Science – Carrie Dameron The Nursing program is an associate degree program that can be completed in four semesters and one summer term after admission to the major. The graduates of an associate degree program in Nursing are prepared to practice as staff nurses in direct patient care in hospitals and long-term care facilities, clinics, and other agencies where nursing roles and services are structured and well developed. Classes are held at the Newark campus. Clinical, hospital, and community experiences are provided at a number of sites in Alameda, Santa Clara, and other local Bay Area counties. During the first year, the foundations of nursing and nursing care of the adults focus on medical/surgical nursing. Content is introduced with therapeutic and professional communication, caring for a culturally diverse population, while implementing the legal and ethical practice of nursing. In addition, the first semester includes an emphasis on the nurse's role on health aging with older adults. The second semester builds from the foundational knowledge of nursing to caring for the family and includes care of children and women's health. In the second year, third semester, nursing content expands caring for adults to include acutely, complex


ill adults with comorbidities. The fourth semester prepares students to provide care for clients with mental health diagnosis while preparing students to transition into the workforce with leadership and advanced clinical experience. Throughout the program nursing students gain competence in the various clinical settings caring for patients with a wide variety of health-illness challenges. The use of simulations across the curriculum enhances the clinical learning experiences. There is no certificate of achievement offered in this major. The program prepares the associate degree graduate to take the NCLEX-RN (licensing exam), leading to practice as a Registered Nurse (R.N.) and transfer to a baccalaureate in nursing program.
