Mohawk signs articulation agreement with first U.K. partner

The University of Glamorgan is Mohawk's first articulation partner in the United Kingdom. Mohawk now has an articulation agreement in place for graduates from the College's Business Administration and Tourism and Travel programs.


Degree completion opportunities are being developed for graduates from Mohawk's communications media and graphics programs to enrol in the University of Glamorgan's award-winning Cardiff School of Creative & Cultural Industries in Wales.


Glamorgan is sponsoring the Ontario Colleges' Marketing Challenge to be hosted at Mohawk.


Mohawk currently has articulation agreements with 13 universities in Canada, the United States and beyond North America. Articulation agreements allow students to apply what they've learned at Mohawk to earn a related degree in less time and at less cost. Articulation agreements between Mohawk College and universities facilitate university admission for Mohawk College graduates by giving credit for college study


In a recent survey, 35 per cent of first semester Mohawk students expressed interest in obtaining a college diploma and university degree.
