Agreement between PJC and A&M-C to benefit aspiring engineers

PARIS - It’s a win-win for Paris Junior College and Texas A&M University-Commerce, after the two sides sign an articulation agreement.

Last week, PJC President Pam Anglin finalized the agreement for the delivery of a Bachelor of Science degree in industrial engineering. She was joined by Brent Donham, department head for Industrial Engineering & Technology at A&M-Commerce and PJC Associate Dean of Math & Sciences Ed McCraw.

As part of the program, a student would take 64 credit hours of transferrable courses and complete an Associate of Science degree at PJC, then take an additional 70 hours at A&M-Commerce to receive a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering.
