Business and Technology

Business and Technology Division

The Business and Technology Division is one of six academic divisions at Volunteer State Community College and home to some of the college’s most popular programs, with more than 1,500 students majoring in one of our 18 programs. Options include an Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree in Business for starting or advancing a career and an Associate of Science – Tennessee Transfer Pathway (A.S. – TTP) degree for transferring directly to one of Tennessee’s four-year universities.

The division also offers four technical certificates that can be earned in just one or two semesters for a rapid path to the workforce. Courses required for the “embedded” technical certificates all count toward an A.A.S. degree, allowing students to “stack” their credentials.

Courses are taught at campuses in Gallatin, Springfield, Cookeville, and Livingston. Most are also available online or in hybrid format.
