Turn Your Apprenticeship into a Bachelor’s Degree
As this online program is intended for apprenticeship students, the coursework deviates slightly from Butler’s standard requirements to honor the applied math background of students coming from various apprenticeship programs.
Become the Boss
Butler's partnership with Pittsburg State allows students who have completed their AAS degree to earn a Bachelor of Science degree without having to set foot on campus. A maximum of 35 credit hours from apprenticeship work will be applied toward the BS degree.
