Associate of Applied Science in Occupational Safety and Health
The Associate of Applied Science (AAS) in Occupational Safety and Health is intended to ensure that students acquire the intellectual knowledge and technical skills that will enable them to advance in this field through organizational advancement and professional certification. This AAS fulfills the needs of both entry level safety personnel who wish to gain professional stature and experienced safety professionals who lack an advanced degree required to seek professional certification.
The Board of Certified Safety Professionals will recognize the CSU AAS in Occupational Safety and Health for the application process under both the Associate Safety Professional designation and the Certified Safety Professional designation.
Note: At this time, this program is not eligible for Federal Student Aid due to its recent addition to the CSU Curriculum. Students desiring to use Federal Student Aid will need to select an eligible program.
