Viterbo and Western Form New Degree Partnership

Viterbo and Western Technical College have formed a new partnership that will allow students to earn an associate degree and bachelor’s degree in business, all in four years.

The agreement has the potential to benefit approximately 1,200 students who are either currently enrolled in these programs or have graduated from the programs in 2004–05. The agreement covers associate degrees in eight business programs, and transfers between 54 and 65 credits each.

“This program provides students with the stair steps from high school, to technical college, to an undergraduate program, to even an MBA program, all without losing credits along the way,” said Robert Dean, dean of the Dahl School of Business.

The program is designed for people who have earned an associate degree in a business field from Western Technical College and are now able to transfer their credits to Viterbo and graduate with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in another two years.
