Pueblo Community College announced this week that it will offer two new degree programs beginning in the 2017 fall semester.

Adding to its 69 degree programs, PCC soon will offer students an associate of general studies degree in legal studies for those interested in careers that require familiarity with law, as well as a two-year transfer program in exercise health promotion that will allow students to obtain credits toward a bachelor's degree program offered at Colorado State University-Pueblo.

"These two new programs are in response to community need," PCC President Patty Erjavec said.

"The (exercise health promotion) program really is another pathway for students to end up at CSU-Pueblo or any other four-year institution that offers this degree, and the legal studies program is the same thing -- it will strengthen the workforce."

To provide degrees that give students more career options in the field of exercise science, the exercise health promotion program was designed for students to transfer to CSU-Pueblo and potentially obtain a bachelor's degree in the exercise science, health promotion and recreation program.

"Personal health, fitness, nutrition and overall well-being have become priorities for many people," Kristina Lyon, PCC's coordinator of the physical education department, said in a press release.

"With a degree in exercise health promotion, a student can pursue a rewarding career in promoting a healthier society."

Completing the program at PCC will give students an associate of general studies degree that meets all the requirements for the first two years of CSU-Pueblo's program, enabling them to enter the university as juniors.

Also new to PCC come fall is the associate of general studies degree in legal studies, which helps students prepare for careers in legal environments including law offices, real estate, insurance companies and the courts.

Richard Keilholtz, chair of PCC's criminal justice and legal studies programs, said that the program was designed to benefit students who are interested in careers in which a solid understanding of the law and legal principles is beneficial.

"Whether they want to transfer to a four-year school or start working right after graduation, this will provide a good, solid legal foundation," Keilholtz said.
