Connected Degrees

The Construction Management Technology (CMT) program has six program-to-program transfer agreements (also called articulation agreements) that connect the Delaware Tech Construction Management Technology associate degree program with baccalaureate programs to create smooth transfer opportunities. The Connected Degree programs offer clear and economical pathways to high quality educational attainment through partnerships with bachelor’s-degreegranting colleges and universities (senior institutions). These articulation agreements enable associate degree graduates to transfer to the senior institution into a designated bachelor’s degree program as juniors, provided the required courses have been completed, and the appropriate cumulative GPA has been achieved as required by the receiving institution. Students must apply to the senior institution and complete all required admission processes.
