The University of North Dakota has inked a deal with Defiance College in Ohio on a dual degree partnership program.
Students at Defiance can earn both a math degree at the school and a Civil or Electrical Engineering degree from UND. The agreement calls for Defiance students to take a total of five years to complete their two degrees.
Earlier this week President Mankey and Dean Caldwell from Defiance visited UND to tour the campus and sign the new agreement in person with UND President Andy Armacost.
The agreement with the private college is the 10th campus with which UND’s College of Engineering and Mines now partners in dual-credit programs.
