Curriculum Guides
Curriculum Guides are suggested courses of study which may include more or less
than the RSCC degree requirements. They are not intended to represent requirements
for any particular college or university. Students should consult articulation agreements,
the catalog of the school to which they intend to transfer, and their advisor for
specific degree requirements. Actual RSCC degree requirements appear on page 93.
Special Education Degree: Associate of Science
The special education curriculum is designed for students who wish to complete the
first two years of a program toward teacher certification. This curriculum will generally
meet the lower division requirements for transfer to a senior institution granting
