Leaders of the UW System and Wisconsin Technical College System are developing a new pathway transfer program for students pursuing degrees in science, technology, engineering and math.
Speaking yesterday during a Wisconsin Technology Council event in Wauwatosa, WTCS President Morna Foy said the program isn’t finalized yet, but expects to make an announcement in the near future.
“Students will go through a two-year associate degree at a technical college, any technical college, and then they would be admitted as juniors into UW institutions in a number of STEM areas: biology, chemistry, math, physics, engineering,” she said.
