Why Model Curriculum? Could provide transfer benefits to students when universities have agreed to recognize an MC and offer students locally-defined benefits. May facilitate meeting employer needs for specified training. Can establishing appropriate program consistency in awards across the colleges. Could facilitate student goal completion by simplifying student movement between colleges and honoring completed coursework through reciprocity.
Reciprocity in MCs Course reciprocity as established for TMCs. Consistency in MC-aligned degrees across colleges – MCs for degrees must identify the GE options permissible – Local Transfer Transfer for STEM No local graduation requirements.
