The College of St. Joseph allows students to study a skilled trade while earning a bachelor of arts degree in Catholic studies. According to the college website, the trades available for study are carpentry, HVAC, plumbing and electric. The degree in Catholic students “esplores the Catholic intellectual tradition, which teaches that man is a rational being, but one that needs the aids of grace and revelation to properly understand the full reality of the Holy Trinity and His creation.”
