From The Daily Cougar:
Through the Bauer College at UH at Sugar Land 2 + 1 + 1 Program, starting in Fall 2020, students will be able to take two years of core courses at community college, one year of business classes that apply to all business majors in Sugar Land and the final year of business courses at UH main campus.
“As the largest undergraduate program in Texas whose mission is to provide an outstanding education while being accessible and affordable, the Bauer College of Business is committed to providing opportunity to all qualified students to obtain an undergraduate degree,” said C.T. Bauer College of Business Dean Paul Pavlou in an email.
For students who live in Sugar Land the program can cut down on travel times for commuters.
“I think it’s a good idea for people who live around that area, I’m kind of jealous honestly because I live in Cypress,” said supply chain management senior Ashton Galley. “I wish we had something like that because I have to commute so far to take my classes.”
Similarly to the engineering degrees, the Sugar Land business program makes receiving a UH education more accessible to students who may face difficulty in enrolling full time at the main campus.
Moving forward, Bauer may further develop this program or add new ones to continue expanding the instructional sites.
“The Bauer College is also considering additional program offerings in Sugar Land in order to provide access to world-class education for graduate and continuing education students,” Pavlou said.
