Chattanooga State Community College
\nengineering students now have a pathway to a bachelor\u2019s degree from University of Tennessee’s industrial engineering program while they work on their associate degrees locally.
\nThe new 2+2 program, lets students study at Chattanooga State for two years and then enter UTK as a junior for their remaining years. Participants would graduate with an associate degree in applied science\u2013general engineering and a Bachelor\u00a0 of Science in industrial engineering. Tim McGhee, Chattanooga State engineering technology division dean, said that while the community college has existing partnerships with UTC, it\u2019s their first partnership with UT, Knoxville.\u00a0 \u201cLocal students interested in one of the most sought after engineering fields now have a \u201cdirect line\u201d with the state\u2019s flagship university,\u201d McGhee said. \u201cIndustrial engineering is one of the highest-demand professions in Tennessee, and UT Knoxville has the only industrial engineering degree in Tennessee,\u201d McGhee said.
\nDr. John Kobza, head of the UT Knoxville Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, said \u201cThe Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at UT Knoxville is excited to be partnering with Chattanooga State Community College
\nto provide a pathway to our industrial engineering degree, Chattanooga State is well known for their strong technical programs, and we feel their general engineering students will be extremely well prepared to transfer to UTK and succeed in
\nour industrial engineering program.\u201d
\nCurrent Chattanooga State sophomores can begin applying for the 2+2 program this spring, officials said. To be eligible, Chattanooga State students must graduate
\nwith an associate degree in general engineering with no less than a 3.0 GPA, officials said.<\/p>\n
