Flexible Degrees:
If you have attended college in the past but never earned a degree, this flexible program can put a degree within reach. This is a flexible degree that offers an opportunity to transform life experience into college credit.
Occupational Development A.A.S.
Labor union members go through an intense apprenticeship program as part of their training. WVU-Parkersburg offers many of the local unions a chance to combine the apprenticeship with general education courses for an Associate in Applied Science in Occupational Development.
Welcome American Electric Power employees. Please click here for more information on the new AEP Occupational Development Associate in Applied Science degree.
Similar to the Occupational Development Degree, the Technical Studies Degree brings together technical school learning and general education requirements. Learning that takes place outside of the college complements courses taken at WVU-Parkersburg to establish this degree.
Multi-Disciplinary Studies B.A.
This is a traditional degree in a non-traditional format. Choose three minors and combine them to get the degree that fits your career goals.
If you are at least 23 years old and have an associate degree or some college, this may be the degree for you. This degree builds on the Board of Governors Associate in Applied Science degree and allows for life experience credit.

In
this one-year program, students gain work experience while earning a 30-hour
