State Technical College of Missouri
COURSE REQUISITES Some courses at State Technical College of Missouri have prerequisite, corequisite, and/or concurrent requisite requirements. Requisite requirements are included in the course description for each course to which they apply. Enrollment in a course with a requisite requirement is not permitted until the requisite requirement is satisfied. The various types of course requisites are defined below:
Prerequisite. A course or requirement that must be completed prior to enrollment in a given course.
Corequisite. A course or requirement that must be completed prior to or at the same time as enrollment in a given course.
Concurrent requisite. A course or requirement that must be completed at the same time as enrollment in a given course.
CATALOG YEAR The semester that students enter college is stored in the STC student information system database. This permanent record is referred to as the student's catalog year and provides the degree or certificate graduation requirements that a student will follow to reach his/her goal. The student who does not remain continuously enrolled has two calendar years to complete all graduation requirements and apply for graduation. After two calendar years, the student must reapply for admission under the catalog requirements in effect at that time. Students who change majors at STC are subject to the degree or certificate graduation requirements in effect on the date that the change of major becomes effective.
In order to meet accrediting standards or to upgrade course offerings, the degree requirements specified by the catalog the student is enrolled under may be modified under certain conditions.
GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS
Philosophy of General Education. The college aims to prepare students to perform effectively in highly specialized and advanced technical occupations and respond effectively to the inevitable technical and societal changes that will occur throughout their careers. To respond to change, students will need to engage in a lifelong process of inquiry, decision-making, and acquisition of new knowledge. General education, which has as its fundamental purpose the development and integration of every student’s knowledge, skills, attitudes and experiences, is one of the best means for achieving the ability to engage effectively in critical thinking and problem solving needed in the work place and beyond.
The associate of applied science degree is composed of the following areas of study: communications, mathematics, sciences, and technical literacy. A certificate is composed of general education appropriate to the area of study.
A key characteristic of the curriculum for each program is the integration of academic and technical education into a balanced program of study designed to develop broad-based, highly-skilled technicians. This requires that the student develop a foundation of communication, mathematics, science, and social knowledge and skills, as well as developing appropriate attitudes associated with successful technicians. This foundation is provided by completion of the required general education courses. The knowledge and skills developed are then integrated into technical education courses for purposes of reinforcement and for purposes of connecting the material learned to specific applications in the student’s field of study.
