DMACC/UNI 2+2 Education Program

In partnership with DMACC, UNI offers 2+2 degree programs for students who are place-bound and cannot move to the UNI campus or students who are changing careers.

The University of Northern Iowa (UNI) and DMACC offer Education Bachelors degree opportunities through 2+2 programs. Students take two years of classes at a DMACC and two years of classes through UNI. UNI faculty teach all UNI classes either at DMACC, face-to-face, or via distance education (ICN, WebCT).

The following Education 2+2 programs are available at the DMACC Carroll and Ankeny Campuses:

• Elementary Education
• Early Childhood Education
• Dual Program (Elementary Education/Early Childhood Education)

A degree from UNI means affordable academic excellence. For more specifics, browse through our website or visit www.uni.edu/2+2.

Benefits of 2+2 Programs

• Students take classes as a cohort (group) enabling them to offer each other support academically and personally.
• Faculty develop 2+2 programs that are the same as on-campus programs.
• A UNI faculty member/coordinator is onsite at one community college with plans to provide similar support at other campuses to better serve students in their home community.
• Student teaching placement and supervision is done through UNI's statewide network of student teaching centers. Full-time UNI faculty supervise student teachers.
• Qualified, degree-holding 2+2 graduates stay in their communities, work in area jobs, and earn $4,000-$12,000/year more after receiving a B.A. degree.
• UNI staff in the program departments, Admissions, Financial Aid, Continuing Education, and other Support Services are prepared to help 2+2 students.
