Aberdeen, WA - Grays Harbor College says they are exploring the possibility of offering a Bachelors of Applied Science degree. The Community college in Aberdeen is asking for help to determine which major to offer.

The State will authorize a BAS degree as an extension of one of the programs they currently offer if there is an active labor market to support the degree.
The College said they could potentially develop a BAS program in the following areas:
Accounting, Business Management, Criminal Justice, Energy Technology, Human Services, Natural Resources, Entrepreneurship
