An articulation agreement signed Thursday between Ogeechee Technical College and Georgia Southern University will make the path to earning a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Manufacturing Engineering at Georgia Southern an even more uniform process. OTC President Dr. Dawn Cartee and interim GSU President Dr. Jean Bartels signed the agreement that allows the transfer of credit to Georgia Southern in certain courses taken by students in Ogeechee Tech’s Basic Mechatronics Specialist certificate, Manufacturing Operations Specialist certificate and the pending Manufacturing Technology associate degree program. “These articulation agreements provide more opportunities for students,” Cartee said.
