MATC offers great Associate’s Degrees in the IT field. And for students looking for education past an Associate’s Degree have a couple options available.

MATC has worked with UWM to provide a path directly into the IST degree. There are a few things that will need to be met to qualify for this path:

• 100% of the Technical Studies courses in MATC IT degrees would apply to the Bachelor’s Degree in IST. These credits transferred in as INFOST X and are only valid towards the IST degree.

• Many general studies courses at MATC will transfer to UWM. The listing of General Studies courses below should satisfy both MATC IT Degree requirements and transfer to UWM:
  • ECON-195
  • ENG-201 and 202
  • MATH-200 or 201
  • NATSCI-225 or NATSCI-245
  • PSYCH-199
  • SOCSCI-197

• If you intend to pursue the IST degree at UWM:
  • The information detailed above is accurate, as of January 2015.
  • We think it is critical to work with a UWM Transfer Counselor. This will ensure that you get the maximum credit transfer from you MATC degree.
  • To quickly check if a class meets the transer requirements you can use the UW Transfer Page.
    • Click the Credit Transfer Wizard and Select General Education Wizard.
    • Remember to choose MATC-Milwaukee to UW-Milwaukee and that these listings are for reference and may not be 100% accurate.

This would leave students approximately 54 credits away from earning the bachelor’s degree from UWM. With a few extra courses it is possible you could also earn a minor in Computer Science – talk with an IST advisor at UWM to learn more about transfer programs and credits.
