MADISON — Current students and recent graduates of Ivy Tech Community College in Madison will soon have the opportunity to earn a bachelor’s degree in Business from Indiana University Southeast while staying in their community. This new partnership provides a seamless pathway for students to continue their education locally, expanding access to high-quality business education without the need to relocate or travel to New Albany for classes.
This innovative collaboration underscores both institutions’ shared commitment to fostering opportunities for students to advance their academic aspirations while meeting the region’s workforce needs.
