That s one of our goals, too, Beloin said. To increase our visibility in the business community and the community at large. The associate degree has always been seen as an entry to something more a four-year degree. So it is a big draw, Rodney said. We do have guaranteed transfer now and it works very smoothly.
People do graduate in four years and they begin here.
The convenience of attending classes locally and the relatively lower cost of enrolling at UWWC compared to four-year universities have great appeal to all students, he said. It s a risk, but it s a risk worth taking. In addition to the BAOA, UWM and the local campus have announced that two more collaborative, four-year degrees will be offered at UWWC starting this January. One will be a Bachelor of Science in Information Resources, offered through the UWM School of Library and Information Science. Its emphasis will be on retrieving, organizing and analyzing data collected over the Internet and other media, explained Dean Mohammed Aman of the UWM school.
