In a continued effort to expand career pathways for students, Miami Dade College (MDC) has established a new transfer articulation agreement with Florida State University (FSU).
The MDC2FSU agreement formalizes a seamless academic transition for MDC students earning an Associate in Arts enabling them to transfer to FSU as juniors and pursue a bachelor’s degree in accordance with the terms of the partnership. The agreement was signed by MDC president Madeline Pumariega and FSU president Richard McCullough.
“MDC’s partnership with FSU accelerates seamless pathways, ensuring our students have a clear path to opportunity,” Pumariega said. “By expanding access in fields like STEM, Cyber Criminology and entrepreneurship, we are empowering the next generation to succeed and shape Florida’s future workforce.”
The first eight MDC2FSU programs selected are: social work, cyber criminology (both criminology and computer science), and entrepreneurship (commercial, retail and STEM).
Programs such as psychology and criminology/criminal justice, which traditionally see the most MDC transfer students, also are included.
Upon transferring, students will be supported through FSU’s Transfer Student Services and other resources, including enrolling in the IDS 3003 Transfer Connections and Success course during their first semester.
“This partnership with Miami Dade College demonstrates FSU’s commitment to ensuring that students across Florida have clear pathways to achieve their academic and professional goals,” McCullough said. “By collaborating with MDC, we are providing these students with a solid plan for success at FSU.”
