Associate of Applied Science in Early Care and Education

University of Cincinnati

The Associate of Science in Early Care and Education Degree program prepares students to work with infants, toddlers, preschoolers and their families in early care and education settings. During the first five years of life, the brain is undergoing rapid development, children are forming attachments, and foundational skills in all developmental domains are developed. Students will develop the knowledge and skills to work effectively with young children and their families during this critical period. Students will complete the necessary requirements to transfer into the online bachelor’s degree program at UC’s College of Education, Criminal Justice and Human Services (CECH).
