Recreation Management
A.A. or A.S. Degree
The Recreation Management program provides students an opportunity to learn how to motivate others to improve their lives through the constructive use of recreation. Successful completion of the Recreation Management associate degree prepares students for transfer to four-year universities. The curriculum has been designed to meet lower-division major requirements at most transfer institutions in Recreation, Recreation Administration, and Resort and Lodging Management. Career opportunities include positions at recreation centers, corporate wellness programs, hotels, resorts, and park and recreation programs. In all cases, students should consult with a counselor before selecting the courses to meet the requirements of the transfer institution.
TRANSFER MAJOR REQUIREMENTS in Recreation are available in the Counseling Center. Students should consult a counselor and the appropriate college catalog for other transfer requirements. Catalogs of California and out-of-state colleges are located in the Library and the Counseling Center. Four-year graduates in Recreation qualify for employment in private industry and recreational agencies.
