As we prepare to break ground this month on the
state-of-the-art Greer Environmental Sciences Center, I share with you a unique
cooperative degree offering between Virginia Wesleyan College and Duke
University.
The Cooperative College (3-2) Program offers students the
opportunity to proceed directly from three years of undergraduate study at
Virginia Wesleyan College to two years of study at Duke University's Nicholas
School’s Master of Forestry (MF) or Master of Environmental Management (MEM)
program.
Students in the program typically earn their bachelor’s
degree after their first year at the Nicholas School and their master’s degree
after their second year at the Nicholas School, thus earning both a bachelor’s
and master’s degree in a total of five years of study.
Details of the program are available here:

This is yet another program of distinction that positions
Virginia Wesleyan as Coastal Virginia's premier private national liberal arts
college.
