WSU articulation agreements
Transferrable articulation agreements allow students to earn their associate's degree
from a community college and then transfer credit toward earning a bachelor's at a
four-year university.
Wichita State and Butler Community College joined together to sign 17 articulation
agreements that will provide a seamless transfer for Butler students wanting to earn
their bachelor's degree at WSU.
The following articulation agreements were signed under four WSU colleges:
College of Applied Studies Exercise Science Early Childhood Unified/Elementary Education Elementary Education, K-6
College of Engineering Computer Engineering Computer Science Electrical Engineering Industrial Engineering Manufacturing Engineering
Fairmount College of Liberal Arts & Sciences Creative Writing Criminal Justice English History Homeland Security Political Science Psychology Sociology
College of Health Professions Public Health Science Health Management
“As a first-generation college student who started at a community college, I know
the value of these transfer and articulation agreements, and they can lead a student
to something bigger and better than they ever thought they were able of accomplishing,”
said Lori Winningham, Butler vice president of academics.
Transfer students are a valuable asset to WSU, which holds the title of being the
top college in the state for students who wish to continue their education after a two-year institution.
