College of DuPage (COD) to PNW Articulation Agreement

A.S. in Construction Management to B.S. in Construction Engineering & Management Technology

This articulation agreement provides a smooth curriculum transition with minimal loss of credit and duplication of coursework to facilitate the completion of the Associate of Science in Construction Management (CM) program at COD and the Bachelors of Science in Construction Engineering & Management Technology (CEMT) program at PNW.

To use this agreement students must apply and be admitted to PNW and to the B.S. CEMT program. COD students will receive equal consideration with other students seeking admission and financial aid. COD students are eligible for admission with junior standing once they:

  • have complete the Associate of Science degree in CM;
  • been admitted to PNW;
  • have earned a course grade of “C” or better on every course accepted for transfer; and
  • have achieved a 2.0 or greater cumulative GPA based on a 4-point scale.
