EASTERN MICHIGAN UNIVERSITY
ARCHIVED ARTICULATION GUIDE
September 2011
Macomb Community College – Associate of Applied Science in Homeland Security
Eastern Michigan University – Bachelor of Science in Public Safety Administration
Additional Information:
1. In completing the coordinated program of study for this articulation agreement, course substitutions may be
made with the guidance of the advisors (indicated below) at both institutions to assure that all requirements
are satisfied. Courses indicated with an * are required for EMU’s Public Safety Administration Program.
Each institution will determine the satisfaction of requirements for their own institution.
2. Students whose transcripts are endorsed as “MACRAO Satisfied” by the community college will only be
required to satisfy three of EMU’s general education requirements, noted on this guide and listed below.
These requirements may be completed at the most appropriate time for the student whether before or after
admission to EMU.
a) an approved course in Quantitative Reasoning: [MATH 1340, 1360, 1370, 1410, 1460, or 1760 at MCC]
or [MATH 110; or if intermediate algebra has been completed with a “C” or higher, MATH 105, 118,
120, 170, COSC 106; PHIL 181, PLSC 210, or STS 224 at EMU]
b) an approved course in Global Awareness or US Diversity: Humanities: ENGL 2800, 2810; HUMN
1700, 1270, 2000; INTL 2000, 2300; Social Sciences: ANTH 1000; GEOG 2000; HIST 1260, 1270,
1700, 2420, 2520, 2650; INTL 2000, 2010, 2500, 2700; POLS 1600; SOSC 2010. Lab Science: NATS
1310 at MCC]
c) an approved Learning Beyond the Classroom course or experience offered by EMU. [PLSC 488 at EMU]
To use MACRAO, students must request an official community college transcript, with the “MACRAO
Satisfied” stamp, be sent to EMU’s Admissions Office. Students, who do not have “MACRAO Satisfied” on
their community college transcript, will be required to satisfy EMU’s general education requirements as
listed in the Undergraduate Catalog. The MACRAO stamp may be completed after admission to EMU,
however, students should inform advisors at EMU that they intend to complete MACRAO, or they may be
advised to complete additional courses for general education.
3. Only courses with a grade of “C” or better (2.0 on a 4.0 scale) will be accepted for transfer to EMU.
4. Under this agreement, EMU will waive the 60-hour rule and require that a minimum of 30 credit hours must
be completed at EMU, 15 hours of which must be in program requirements at the 300-level or above. Of the
last 30 hours completed before graduating, a minimum of 10 credit hours must be in courses offered by EMU.
A minimum of 124 credit hours, completed in-residence or accepted in transfer, is required for graduation.
5. Students must meet all admission requirements at the time of application for admission to EMU, including
submitting transcripts from all previously attended colleges. MCC students will receive equal consideration
with other students for course registration and financial aid.
6. Students are encouraged to contact the EMU Public Safety Administration Program Coordinator early, before
applying to EMU. To facilitate the evaluation of transcripts, students should indicate they are using this
articulation agreement on their EMU application and bring a copy of this guide to all advising sessions.
Copies of this articulation guide are available on EMU’s webpage at www.emich.edu/ccr/artguide.php.
Effective Dates: September 1, 2011 until August 31, 2014
If this agreement is not renewed at the end of the effective period, students who have already begun the program
at Macomb Community College will have an additional three years to be admitted to EMU under the terms of this
agreement. Students who began MCC’s program prior to the effective date may use this agreement.
