University Of Mary Partners With Another School

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) -- The University of Mary has announced a partnership with another school for the third time in a year.

The four-year Bismarck school is partnering with the two-year Alexandria Technical and Community College in Alexandria, Minnesota, to offer undergraduate degrees in business management, criminal justice, human resources and applied sciences.

Students will be able to complete their degrees without leaving the Alexandria campus. Mary will lease space on that campus and hire faculty and staff to coordinate and administer the courses.

In the past year, Mary also has entered into a course-transfer agreement with Bismarck State College and into an agreement with Arizona State University to offer degrees in Catholic studies and theological studies.
