What is the University Center?

The University Center is a partnership between MCC and four-year institutions that agree to offer a bachelor or graduate degree on the MCC campus. The four-year universities are responsible for their degree programs and provides faculty members to instruct each course. The courses are taught by full time instructors, visiting professors, in two-way interactive classrooms, or by Internet. The courses are offered in a predictable sequence so that a student can earn a degree within a designated time period if they follow the proper course sequence and successfully complete each course. While most classes are offered in the evenings and on weekends, more day classes have become available and will continue to be offered as student demand increases.

All classes will be available in Waco.

Each degree program can be completed on the MCC campus so that students do not have to commute out of McLennan County. However, students in some University Center programs may choose to take a course at the home university campus in order to finish their degree ahead of schedule.

The University Center at MCC is concerned with the junior and senior level courses needed to complete a bachelor's degree in a chosen field. Advisors are available for each degree that is offered. Each degree plan is designed to incorporate the core curriculum from McLennan Community College to provide a seamless transition to the four-year degree of choice.
