1 ARTICULATION AGREEMENT Between COMMUNITY COLLEGE of Philadelphia and TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Of The Commonwealth System of Higher Education for Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in Bioengineering or Energy Systems The Community College of Philadelphia (CCP) and Temple University (Temple) enter into this agreement in order to facilitate the transfer of students with an Associate in Science in Engineering Science from CCP to Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in Bioengineering or Energy Systems at Temple University. Once students transfer to Temple University, a full-time student, will be able to complete the requirements for the Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in Bioengineering or Energy Systems at Temple within four regular semesters so long as the recommended course(s) are taken in the summer term prior to starting at Temple University, and assuming that no remedial or repeated courses are needed and all applicable Temple grade and other requirements are met to the satisfaction of Temple. If students do not complete the recommended course(s) during the summer, it can take up to three years to complete the degree at Temple. Students who complete the CCP curriculum specified on page 4 of this agreement are guaranteed the transfer credit for courses indicated in that section. Courses not listed there, but brought into Temple in transfer by a student covered by this agreement, will be granted credit according to standard Temple- Community College of Philadelphia equivalencies. This agreement does not change the regular Temple policy that grants transfer credit to courses taken elsewhere only if they were completed with a grade of C- or higher. Students who transfer under the terms of this agreement are responsible for meeting requirements in their major field of study and any other curricular requirements applying to all Temple students that were in effect at Temple at the time of their matriculation to Temple. These students will abide by the policies and procedures, and any revisions thereof, that apply to all Temple students. This agreement does not cover students who transfer from the Community College of Philadelphia to Temple without first completing the Associate in Science in Engineering Science. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ADMISSION TO TEMPLE 1. Students entering Temple under the terms of this agreement must meet all regular Temple admissions requirements and all applicable Temple requirements and deadlines pertaining to application for admission and payment of tuition and fees. 2. Evaluation of transfer credits is based on a student's major, and the student's Temple school/college makes the final determination of which transfer credits are applicable to the student's degree program. Transfer evaluations may change for students who change majors. Whenever possible, credit is allowed for courses completed more than 10 years before the date of admission. 3. Temple requires that all transfer courses are completed with a grade of C- or higher. Consequently, Community College of Philadelphia courses equivalent to Temple courses, taken under the terms of this agreement, will receive transfer credit at Temple only if completed with a grade of C- or higher.

2 4. Because the Community College Associate of Science in Engineering Science is approved for GenEd-to-GenEd Transfer to Temple, students under this program agreement satisfy Temple General Education Curriculum (GenEd) requirements according to the terms of the Community College-Temple GenEd-to-GenEd Transfer agreement. Their GenEd requirements are met by receipt of the Community College A.S. degree. Developmental courses and courses for which a grade below C- was received do not transfer to Temple, but having taken such courses or received such grades does not affect an otherwise eligible student s Temple GenEd-to-GenEd Transfer status. Satisfaction of the GenEd through Temple GenEd-to-GenEd Transfer does not change the requirements of the student s Temple major or college. JOINT RESPONSIBILITIES FOR MAINTENANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT The Community College of Philadelphia will maintain and distribute information about the current form of this agreement, and any changes relevant to it, to students, counselors, advisors, and faculty. Temple University's College of Engineering will keep appropriate Temple offices and staff (including the Office of the Senior Vice Provost for University Studies and Admissions office) informed of this agreement and any modifications thereto, will post needed DARS exceptions specified in the agreement, and will be responsible for distributing information concerning any changes. Both institutions will encourage Community College of Philadelphia students to meet with representatives of Temple University to discuss issues related to admissions and financial aid well in advance of their expected date of entry. Faculty from each institution teaching in the curriculum for which this agreement has been developed will be encouraged to meet at least once annually to discuss issues of curriculum and student development. Temple University and the Community College of Philadelphia will collaborate on research activities that will help assess the effectiveness of this transfer program in meeting the needs of students transferring from the Community College of Philadelphia to Temple University. REVISION, RENEWAL AND TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT The Temple University College of Engineering and the Community College of Philadelphia Transfer Office are responsible for identifying, and communicating to each other, changes in their respective courses, requirements, or policies that affect this agreement. This agreement will be in effect as of Fall 2010, will be reviewed annually by The Temple University College of Engineering and the Community College of Philadelphia Transfer Office, and will automatically be renewed until superseded by a new agreement or formally terminated. Revisions in the course equivalency lists may be made with the verbal consent of the representatives of the two schools; major revisions to this agreement require their signatures on a letter of agreement or a revised version of the agreement. All revisions, however, require that documentation is sent and approved by Temple s Office of the Senior Vice Provost for Undergraduate Studies to ensure that updates are made to the appropriate systems in order to effectively implement this agreement. Either institution may terminate this agreement at any time by written notice at least one year in advance of the effective date of termination. Should this agreement be terminated, it is understood that the termination will not apply to students already accepted to Temple University under the terms of this agreement, but not yet enrolled in classes at Temple. The Community College of Philadelphia and Temple University understand that they shall act in an independent capacity in the performance of this agreement, and shall not be considered as employees, agents, affiliates, or subsidiaries of each other. Neither Temple nor the Community College of Philadelphia have the right to bind or obligate one another in any manner inconsistent with or unrelated to this agreement. This agreement is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Effective Semester: Fall 2010 Page 2 of 5
