Central State, Cincinnati State form academic partnership
Central State University and Cincinnati State Technical and Community College will sign an agreement on Tuesday, June 30, designed to create a smooth transition for students from Cincinnati State to Central State.
Qualified students who graduate with an associate’s degree from Cincinnati State, a two-year school, will have a smooth pathway if they enroll in specific bachelor’s degree programs at Central State, a four-year university.
The agreement supports Central State’s Speed to Scale initiative, which included the creation of partnerships among local and regional universities.
The agreement involves several of Central State’s key academic programs, including mechanical engineering, industrial technology, water resources management and environmental engineering.
Students must have taken specific Cincinnati State courses that correlate with required courses for the respective bachelor’s degree programs at Central State.
Central State is a historically black public university with a total enrollment of 2,200 students at its main campus in Wilberforce and its campus in Dayton.
Cincinnati State enrolled about 8,700 students for the spring 2009 term. Last year more than 16,000 students participated in credit and non-credit classes. Cincinnati State has the largest co-op program among two-year colleges in the U.S., according to school officials.
