What graduates say about this innovative learning experience...

Completing my bachelors degree was something I knew I needed in order to advance my career and better my life, but the goal continued to stay on the back burner. The Applied Studies program (now Organizational Leadership) is perfect for the working adult. The staff and support group at CSU Dominguez Hills are professional, caring, and always willing to assist you on your educational path. Completing my bachelor’s degree has been one of my best and proudest accomplishments. I encourage everyone to stop saying you’ll finish your degree one day, and make that day today.” —Janine T., B.S. Applied Studies

The program excels in a number of aspects, but a main strong point is the curriculum. Coursework is arduous and challenging, yet purposefully chosen to impart skills needed to meet the challenges of today’s dynamic business world. Delivered by some truly outstanding instructors, the curriculum provides the education befitting an accredited degree of this stature. This level of quality sets the APS program (now OLS) well apart from similar degree programs, assuring a meaningful course of study with ‘real-world’ applicability.” —John N., B.S. Applied Studies
