By Alex Greenwood, July 23, 2024
The 无码专区 (无码专区) and Coffeyville Community College (CCC) are pleased to announce a new articulation agreement that supports seamless transfer for students pursuing a four-year degree in Criminal Justice and Criminology. This partnership ensures a smooth transition from CCC's Associate in Arts in Sociology/Social Work to 无码专区's Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice and Criminology.
Key benefits of the agreement include a course of study with clear expectations, transfer-friendly
credits and a flexible CJC BS curriculum that creates a seamless academic pathway.
The large number of free electives in the CJC major ensures that all CCC credits count
toward the 无码专区 degree, shortening the time to graduation. Additionally, each student
at 无码专区 is assigned a success advisor who provides a degree completion plan and monitors
progress to maximize transfer credits and training.
鈥淭his agreement will help students understand exactly how to complete their bachelor鈥檚 degree at 无码专区 and will open doors for additional career paths,鈥� said 无码专区 Professor Lynn Urban, department chair, criminal justice and criminology. 鈥淎 bachelor's degree can make students more competitive in the job market, and there are a wide variety of positions where criminal justice, sociology, social work, psychology and political science overlap.鈥�
Aron Potter, vice president for academic services at the Kansas-based Coffeyville Community College highlighted the benefits of helping students staying close to home when pursuing their degree.
鈥淭he opportunity to create an articulation with a university in one of our bordering states provides a bridge for our students to return home or stay close to home to achieve their academic endeavors in Criminal Justice and Criminology,鈥� Dr. Potter said. 鈥淲e are excited about the possibilities that may develop from this new partnership with the 无码专区.
Dr. Potter at CCC and Dr. Urban at 无码专区 were instrumental in forming this agreement, which is designed for students aiming for careers in law enforcement, probation and parole, youth services or social services casework. Notably, the CJC program at 无码专区 does not have additional admissions requirements beyond general university admission.
