Bachelor of Applied Arts and Sciences

University of North Texas

This multidisciplinary degree program is specifically designed for nontraditional students who wish to earn a bachelor's degree. This unique program accepts credits earned from military training, from an Associate of Applied Science degree, and from other universities and trade schools. It may also facilitate graduation for students who are returning to college after spending time in the workplace.

Why Earn an Applied Arts and Sciences Degree?

An estimated 35% of jobs in the U.S. require at least a bachelor’s degree, yet 36 million Americans have attended some college, but never completed their degree. The B.A.A.S. is an attainable and affordable option for transfer students from community colleges and technical institutions, veterans or active-duty military personnel, and other non-traditional students with college credit to complete their bachelor’s degree.

This degree program was designed with flexibility in mind, offering the option to complete courses in person at UNT locations in Frisco and Denton, online, or as a mixture of in-person and online classes.

Additionally, UNT has partnered with Coursera to bring the Bachelor of Applied Arts and Sciences (B.A.A.S.) undergraduate degree completion program fully online. The program courses are taught by UNT faculty and delivered on Coursera’s globally recognized and highly accessible online platform.
