GENERAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS

YOUR FUTURE STARTS HERE.

GENERAL EDUCATION COURSES By having smaller class sizes, you have a better chance to get to know the faculty teaching your classes. Compared to an auditorium packed with hundreds of students, LBW’s small class sizes improve communication among students and faculty. That’s the type of attention you deserve.

At less than half the cost of most four- year universities, it’s a great chance to get the first two years of academic requirements completed before transferring. At the same time, you could complete training in one of our 16 career technical & health programs. Student success is a top priority at LBW, with guidance along the way to help you succeed. LBW offers Associate in Arts degrees, Associate in Science degrees, university transfer courses, career orientated degrees and certificates and concurrent enrollment. The College also provides specialized training for business and industry, continuing education courses and community services.
