Cosmetology is the scientific study and practice of beauty culture.

This program has been carefully constructed to give students knowledge and skills that are required to become a licensed cosmetologist.
This is a career program designed for students to go directly into the labor market upon completion. Although some of the courses in this program will transfer to four-year institutions, this program is not designed to be a transfer program of study; therefore, it is not subject to the terms and conditions of Alabama Transfers state transfer and articulation reporting system.
