COD to PNW Transfer Guide: Mechatronics Engineering Technology
This is a transfer guide for the College of DuPage students planning on transferring to the Bachelor of Science in Mechatronics Engineering Technology degree program within the College of Technology at PNW.
College of DuPage (COD) to PNW Articulation Agreement
A.S. in Electronics Engineering Technology to B.S. in Mechatronics Engineering 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 Electronics Engineering Technology (EET) program at the College of DuPage (COD) and the Bachelor of Science in Mechatronics Engineering Technology (MET) program at PNW.
To use this agreement students must apply and be admitted to PNW and to the B.S. in MET 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 completed the Associate of Science degree in EET;
- 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.
