Officials from Texas A&M University-Texarkana and ÂÒÉ«ÎÞÂëÈËÆÞÊÓƵӰԺ met on the ÂÒÉ«ÎÞÂëÈËÆÞÊÓƵӰԺ campus May 25 to sign a new articulation agreement between the two schools. The signing combines the Associate of Applied Science Degree in Medical Assisting from ÂÒÉ«ÎÞÂëÈËÆÞÊÓƵӰԺ with the Bachelor of Applied Arts and Sciences Degree from A&M-Texarkana. ÂÒÉ«ÎÞÂëÈËÆÞÊÓƵӰԺ President, Dr. Ron Clinton (right) is pictured formalizing the agreement with A&M-Texarkana President, Dr. Emily Cutrer.
Articulation agreements between the two institutions have existed since 1999, when the original partnership was begun as part of a teacher preparation program. Articulation agreements are formal documents outlining how certain courses or paths of study can be transferred among and accepted between the two institutions to combine and complete a specific degree plan.†While some of the ÂÒÉ«ÎÞÂëÈËÆÞÊÓƵӰԺ students may take classes at the Texarkana campus, the biggest advantage for ÂÒÉ«ÎÞÂëÈËÆÞÊÓƵӰԺ students is that most of them can complete their bachelor?s degree program through A&M-Texarkana while still attending classes in Mt. Pleasant.
