In 1912, a new school opened in downtown Milwaukee to help young people
prepare for a better future. Named Milwaukee Continuation School, it evolved
and expanded its scope to meet the communitys changing needs throughout
the decades, eventually encompassing four campuses and becoming
Milwaukee Area Technical College.
For more than 100 years, the college has remained committed to its founding
goal: To prepare citizens to enter the world of work, to remain in it, and to
advance as far in it as their skills and abilities allow.
This legacy continues to influence MATC:
Hands-on learning. In 1928, the school began offering evening classes taught
by industry professionals that used equipment students would encounter on the
job. Hands-on learning, instructors with real-world experience and convenient
class times are hallmarks of MATC.

program was developed with the University of Wisconsin-Madison as the first
credit-transfer partner. MATC now has almost 400 four-year college transfer
agreements.

began expanding its two-year associate degree and one-year technical diploma
programs. Today MATC offers 79 associate degree and 53 technical diploma
programs for careers in business, healthcare, technology, creative arts/media
and more.

diploma, and offers high school-level classes needed to enter college.

Cancellation of classes: The college reserves the right to cancel a
class in cases of insufficient enrollment or budgetary constraints,
and to close registrations for a class section that has reached its
capacity. Course times, locations and instructors are subject to

enTRAnCe ReQuIReMenTs FoR PRoGRAM sTuDenTs

A high school diploma or GED equivalency certificate is required
before entrance to an MATC associate degree or technical diploma
program.
unConDITIonAl ACCePTAnCe
If you meet all requirements, you will be fully admitted into the
degree/diploma program of your choice unless a waiting list exists.
Each academic program includes courses that require a minimum

level of proficiency in reading, writing and math. If you lack proficiency
in any of these areas, you may be advised to take refresher courses.
Upon attainment of high school requirements or successful completion of refresher courses, notify the Admissions office to update
your Admission status.
ConDITIonAl ACCePTAnCe
If you need courses to qualify for programs or if your placement
scores do not meet program requirements, you may be conditionally
admitted. You will be advised to follow an appropriate sequence of
courses.
Some courses within degree programs may also require specific high
school requirements. If you lack these course requirements, you may
fulfill them either through our Adult High School (see the School of
Pre-College Education section in this catalog or at matc.edu), or our
School of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
WAITInG lIsTs
Waiting lists are established when the number of applications for a
program exceeds the student capacity of the program. Applicants are
then placed on the waiting list by the date their application process is
completed. Students are removed from this list as openings occur.
Only applicants who meet the academic admissions requirements will
be added to the waiting list.
ReADMIssIon
If you were not continuously enrolled in your program (excluding
summers) you must apply for readmission by completing a program
readmission form. Notify the nearest MATC campus Admissions
office by mail, phone, or by visiting matc.edu.
If the program you are reapplying to has a waiting list, the
instructional department will determine if you can be readmitted
directly to a segment of the program or must be placed on the waiting
list. The graduation requirements in effect at the time of your
readmission will be used to determine your eligibility for graduation.
CouRse PlACeMenT AssessMenTs
During the MATC admissions process, you will be asked to take the
Accuplacer assessment to make sure you have the skills and
knowledge needed to succeed in the degree or diploma program you
have chosen. Many of the colleges programs require that students
meet basic-skills-level requirements in reading, writing and
mathematics before being accepted into a program.
After completing the assessment, you will meet with a counselor to
review your first-semester program.

together a portfolio of documents for consideration before you can
begin core technical courses associated with your anticipated
program.
The petitioning process is specific to each individual program.
Detailed instructions on how to complete the petitioning process for a
program are available online. See matc.edu and visit the programs
web page to view the petition process.
CRIMInAl bACkGRounD CHeCk

PRoGRAMs
Requirements in this section apply to all associate degree, diploma
and certificate programs in the School of Health Sciences.
A grade of C (and for some courses a grade of B-) is the minimum
grade accepted for School of Health Sciences courses that are part
of a health program. If a C (or for some courses a grade of B-) is not
achieved, the course grade is unsatisfactory. Any student who drops
a course twice, receives an Unsatisfactory (U) and/or a Withdrawal
(W) grade twice in the same technical course or in two different
technical courses is deemed program-ineligible. The student will not
be permitted to continue in the indicated Health Sciences program.

After a student becomes program-ineligible, his or her program code
will be deactivated by the program designee.
A student may be withdrawn from a clinical or laboratory component
of School of Health Sciences courses due to unsafe practice as
defined in the Course Outcome Summary (course outline). This
withdrawal will result in an unsatisfactory grade.
Students must adhere to safety measures and follow standard
precautions both at school and in the clinical/field placement setting.
It is the ethical and legal responsibility of students as it is of all
healthcare professionals to follow strict safety guidelines when
working with all patients and to provide quality healthcare to all
people regardless of diagnosis.
HeAlTH ReQuIReMenTs
All School of Health Sciences students are required to complete
and submit an Electronic Health Record profile. The profile includes
(but is not limited to) an assigned medically ordered drug test,
documentation of immunizations, TB skin tests, cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR) certification and/or first aid certification. The
profile is required in most School of Health Sciences programs
prior to enrollment in the first clinical course. The need for additional
personal background-check documentation (criminal and/or health
related) prior to and during clinical/field placement might also delay
or prevent clinical/field placement. Clinical/field placement will not be
made if the student fails to meet these requirements.
ClInICAl PlACeMenTs
Changes occurring in the healthcare industry may affect the
availability of clinical placements and may require additional
personal background documentation prior to and during clinical
field/experience. This may extend the length of a students program.

If you plan to earn a bachelors degree, you can start at MATC and
transfer your credits. By enrolling in MATCs Liberal Arts and Sciences
degree program or a degree program that is designed with four-year
college transfer in mind, you can earn credits that will transfer to other
colleges and universities.
MATC has almost 400 four-year college transfer agreements in place.
Among the multiple pathways for MATC students to begin their
bachelors degrees:
Complete up to 72 four-year college transfer (200-level) Liberal Arts
and Sciences credits. These core courses may transfer to four-year
colleges in Wisconsin and beyond.
MATCs five A.A./A.s. degrees are: Associate in Science (A.S.)
Liberal Arts Transfer, Associate in Arts (A.A.) Liberal Arts Transfer,
Educational Foundations Track A.A., Biotechnology Track A.S., and
Chemical Technology Track A.S.
Program-to-Program transfer: Selected associate degree program
credits are accepted as the first two years of a related bachelors degree
program at certain partner four-year colleges.
university of Wisconsin programs: Students are guaranteed
admission into UW-Madison, UW-Milwaukee or UW-Parkside if they
complete a predetermined number of credits in prescribed Liberal Arts
courses, maintain a good GPA and declare their intent for the program.
Historically black Colleges and universities: Students complete the
first two years and then transfer with junior standing to one of 10 partner
HBCUs throughout the United States.
Plan Ahead
Preparation is key. Program counselors will help with the initial selection
of courses for your program and provide advice about transfer course
choices. To get the most out of your four-year college transfer
experience, plan ahead by contacting MATCs four-year college transfer

office at 414-297-6836. See the Credit Transfer information at matc.edu.
It is important to remember that in credit transfer, the awarding of credits
is with the receiving institution. Contact the Admissions department of the
college or university to which you plan to transfer for more detailed credit
transfer information. Also see School of Liberal Arts and Sciences at
matc.edu.
Transfer Days
MATC hosts transfer days with representatives from many public and
private colleges and universities. Plan to attend a transfer day on your
campus. Watch for information about the dates, locations and times.
Research Your options
Take a look at the following resources when researching your options:
Articulation agreements between MATC and the various colleges
and universities
Majors offered and the curriculum guides for the majors you are
interested in, to assist with course selection while at MATC
Contact information for the college or university you are considering
Location and other important logistics that will influence your decision
Financial aid availability
General information about the college, such as average class size,
student and campus activities and other areas of interest to you
Because the final decision of which classes will transfer is made by the
institution you are transferring to, it is important to make contact early
and plan ahead
TIs Transfer Information system
TIS is a website designed with the transfer student in mind. If you are
planning to transfer to another Wisconsin college or university, you
can research which courses transfer to your new school and create
a planning guide for your major. Go to www.uwsa.edu/tis.

FAMIlY eDuCATIonAl RIGHTs AnD

PRIVACY ACT (FeRPA)
MATC complies with the Family Educational
Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). The purpose
of this act is to allow students to know what
educational records are kept by the college, to
provide students the right to inspect those
records and ask for corrections if necessary,
and to control the release of such information
to those who are not involved in the
educational process.
Under the Privacy Act, directory information is
made available to anyone who requests it
unless you specifically ask that this not be
done. To block directory information, the
request must be made in the Registrars office
at the Downtown Milwaukee Campus. MATC
considers directory information to be only the
following: name; major field of study; dates of
attendance; full-time/part-time status; technical
diplomas, degrees, or certificates awarded;
and participation in officially recognized
activities and sports.
Under provisions of the Privacy Act, MATC will
not respond to inquiries regarding time and/or
location of a students classes. MATC does
not provide student or instructor addresses
and/or telephone numbers. If you do not want
any information released, please contact the
Registrars office to complete the necessary
paperwork.
Under FERPA, personally identifiable

information in your education record will not
be released or disclosed unless you consent
to such a release. However, there are
exceptions under FERPA that authorize
disclosure without your consent.
One exception is disclosure to school
officials with legitimate educational interests. A
school official has a legitimate educational
interest if the official needs to review an
education record in order to fulfill his or her
professional responsibility. Upon request, the
college discloses education records without
consent to officials of another school in which
a student seeks or intends to enroll.
FERPA allows the release of education
records without the consent of the student or
parents to authorized representatives of the
state attorney generals office for law
enforcement purposes.
FERPA permits disclosure to an alleged
victim of either a crime of violence or a
nonforcible sex offense the final results
of any disciplinary action taken against
an alleged perpetrator. For more information,
call 414-297-6870.

PRoGRAM PlAn
Your Program Plan includes academic status, advisor name and
location, term, program, cumulative GPA, courses taken and courses
yet to take to complete your program. You may obtain your Program
Plan through INFOnline.
ATTenDAnCe
Instructors are required to take attendance. Regularity and punctuality
of class attendance are expected. It is the responsibility of instructors
to inform you of attendance requirements, and these requirements
should be included in each course syllabus. It is your responsibility as
a student to discuss absences with your instructors. When an absence
occurs, the responsibility for the makeup of the work missed lies with
the student.
Instructor Recommended Withdrawal
You may be dropped for absenteeism when:
Your consecutive absences exceed the number of class meetings
per week, or on the third consecutive absence when classes meet
once each week.
Your attendance is sporadic (e.g., you miss seven class periods
for a class that meets three periods a week) and you are unable to
make up the instruction missed.
You fail to meet attendance requirements of licensing agencies.
You pose a safety hazard to yourself or others because of missed
instruction critical to safe class or lab performance.
You are unable to make up instruction missed in a lab/shop class.
You have not attended class during the first two weeks of
the term.
PReReQuIsITes
A prerequisite is the preparation or previous coursework considered
necessary for success in a class. Students at MATC must complete
the required prerequisites for a class prior to enrolling in the class.
Prerequisites include:
Courses for which specific prerequisites have been established
Sequential coursework in a degree program
Courses in which an equivalent prerequisite exists at another twoyear or four-year transfer college or university
Please contact your counselor, advisor or the instructor of the course
you wish to enroll in if you have any questions about prerequisites.
This should be done before you enroll in the course.
GRADInG
The grade-point average (GPA) is computed by multiplying the gradepoint value of each grade by the credit value for the course. The total
grade-point value is divided by the total number of credits attempted, to
determine the grade-point average.
Letter grades are given the following grade-point values:
If you do not report for the final examination and you do not formally
withdraw or arrange for an incomplete grade, you will be given a U
grade for the course.

* An Incomplete (I) may be given if you have satisfactorily carried a
course until near the end of the semester and have made arrangements to complete the course requirements prior to the end of the
following semester. An I that is not removed from your transcript within
one semester will become a U for scholarship purposes.
** You may audit a course if you do not want to receive credits or an
achievement grade.
You are considered enrolled in courses until you officially withdraw.

Complete a Course Change form available in the office of the
academic dean or the Registration and Records office at any campus,
or via INFOnline at matc.edu.
If you are enrolled in Continuing Education career courses (400

series), you may be issued a certificate at the end of the course.
MATC does not issue grades for Personal Enrichment (600-series,
avocational) courses.
If you have documented health or unusual personal problems affecting

your attendance and your instructor agrees that you can make up the
work, you may be allowed to continue and may be advised to use
MATC support services. However, if your instructor determines you
cannot complete the work or you will hinder instruction of other
students, you will be withdrawn. To appeal, you must go to the
academic dean and request reinstatement. If you are appealing, you
may stay in class until the drop is official, unless your presence may
cause a safety hazard to yourself or others.
Dropping or Changing Courses
The last day you may voluntarily withdraw from a course is two weeks
before the last day of the semester. For summer sessions and quarter
sessions, the cutoff date for withdrawal is one week before the end of
the session. In extenuating circumstances, the withdrawal cutoff date
may be overridden with the approval of both the instructor and the
associate dean.

The MATC Standards of Academic Success and Financial Aid Eligibility
define the requirements students must meet to maintain satisfactory
academic progress and financial aid eligibility. They provide students
who are having academic difficulties with a framework for knowing when
assistance and specific support services are needed to ensure success
in meeting their educational goals.
They also establish a formal process to identify, notify, and provide
assistance to students who fall below required academic standards
as well as provide the appeal process. The Standards of Academic
Success apply to all students enrolled in degree and diploma programs.
MATC calculates students Academic Status three times each year: after
the end of the fall, spring, and summer semesters. Grade changes and
completion of incomplete grades will be calculated the following
semester. This calculation includes:
Semester Grade-Point Average (GPA) based on coursework
completed at MATC during the semester being evaluated
Cumulative GPA based on all coursework completed at MATC
Semester course completion rate (percentage of credits
completed out of credits attempted at MATC for the semester
being evaluated)
Cumulative course completion rate (percentage of credits
completed out of all credits attempted at MATC)
After the calculation, students will be placed on good academic
standing, academic warning, academic probation, or academic
probation with monitored academic plan. These students are financial
aid eligible (Title IV Programs) as long as they can complete their
academic program within the maximum timeframe of attempted credits.
The maximum timeframe is the period of time that is no longer than
150% of the length of the academic program. For example, the
Registered Nursing associate degree program requires 70 credits to
graduate. Total credits to graduate (70) multiplied by 150% is 105 in
attempted credits. This means that the student must complete the
program within the 105 attempted credits to be eligible to receive
financial aid. The 105 attempted credits include: all credits transferred to
MATC, attempted credits, and completed credits at MATC.
GooD ACADeMIC sTAnDInG
To remain in Good Academic Standing, a student must maintain:
Minimum 2.0 Semester Grade-Point Average
Minimum 2.0 Cumulative Grade-Point Average
Minimum 67% Semester Course Completion Rate (U, W, and I
grades are considered as credits attempted but not successfully
completed)
Minimum 67% Cumulative Course Completion Rate (U, W, and
I grades are considered as credits attempted but not successfully
completed)
Students may be eligible to receive Title IV and state financial aid while
on good academic standing.
ACADeMIC WARnInG (FInAnCIAl AID WARnInG)

Students who fail to meet the requirements for Good Academic
Standing will have their status changed to Academic Warning and will
receive written notification from the Registrar. The number of credits a
student may take is not limited.
Students on Academic Warning will return to Good Academic Standing
when they meet both semester and cumulative standards. If students
do not meet the standards to return to good standing, they will be
placed on Academic Suspension.
Students cannot be on Academic Warning consecutively (two or more
semesters in a row). Students may not appeal their Academic Warning
status.
ACADeMIC susPensIon (FInAnCIAl AID susPensIon)
Students on Academic Warning placed on Academic Suspension will
be notified by the Registrar of their change in status, the appeal
procedures, and the deadlines to file an Academic Appeal for
Reinstatement. All appeals must be in writing. The appeals review
process includes a determination of financial aid eligibility.
The first time a student is suspended and the appeal is granted, the
student will be placed on Academic Probation with or without
financial aid.
If a student is suspended two or more times and the appeal is granted,
the student will be placed on Academic Probation with Monitored Plan
with or without financial aid.
Students whose appeals are denied will be suspended from MATC for
one semester. To be considered for reinstatement and financial aid
eligibility, students must file an academic appeal by the deadline
established by the Academic Appeals Committee.
ACADeMIC PRobATIon (FInAnCIAl AID PRobATIon)
Students on Academic Probation will be limited to a maximum of six
counselor-approved credits. The program counselor will serve as the
advisor to students on academic/financial aid probation.
Students will return to Good Academic Standing when they meet both
the semester and the cumulative requirements.
Students cannot be on Academic Probation consecutively (two or more
semesters in a row).
ACADeMIC PRobATIon WITH MonIToReD ACADeMIC PlAn
(FInAnCIAl AID PRobATIon WITH MonIToReD PlAn)
As a consequence of failing to meet the requirements to return to Good
Academic Standing, students on Academic Probation will be placed on
Academic Suspension. Students will need to appeal, and if the appeal
process is granted, students will be placed on Academic
Probation with Monitored Plan and will be required to follow an
academic plan that is developed by their program counselor.
The plan will be monitored each semester. Any deviation from the plan
will result in suspension.
(Continued on next page)

Students on this status must achieve a 2.0 semester grade-point average
and a 100% semester completion rate to remain on this status and avoid
returning to Academic and Financial Aid Suspension.
Students will return to Good Academic Standing when they meet both
semester and cumulative requirements, as defined by the Standards for
Good Academic Standing.
GRADuATIon ReQuIReMenTs

The 64-credit curriculum includes four courses focused on the historical, cultural,
sociological and philosophical foundations of urban education:
Career outlook According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics:
EDF-249: Orientation to Urban Teaching (3 credits)
Employment of kindergarten, elementary, middle and secondary

school teachers is expected to grow by 14% between 2010 and 2020
EDF-253: Issues in Urban Teaching (3 credits)
Increasing enrollments of minorities, coupled with a shortage of minority

teachers, should cause efforts to recruit minority teachers to intensify
Job growth is expected because of declines in student-teacher ratios,
increases in enrollment, and greater public interest in education
Median annual wages of kindergarten, elementary, middle and
secondary school teachers ranged from $51,380 to $53,230 in 2010
Preparation for admission Complete the MATC Admissions process.
When applying for admission, use Program Code 20-800-1CU.
Full admission requires:
Completion of the following courses with a grade of C or better:
EDF-249, ENG-201 and MATGEN-110 (or sufficient math placement
score)
A program GPA of 2.5 or higher
Future opportunities With further preparation, teachers
may become administrators or supervisors.
For Information:
EDF-254: Field Experience in Urban K-12 Classrooms (2 credits)

EDF-255: Introduction to Teaching (3 credits)
Special attention is given to how race, class, language and culture influence the teachinglearning relationship. Students complete observational and participatory experiences with
Milwaukee Public Schools.

Program Code: 10-825-1P
MATC students have the opportunity to enter the school paraprofessional field
through the Classroom Paraprofessional Track of the Individualized Technical Studies
A.A.S. associate degree program.
Classroom paraprofessionals provide instructional and clerical support for classroom
teachers, allowing teachers more time for lesson planning and teaching. They support
and assist children in learning class material, providing students with individualized
attention. They also supervise students in the cafeteria, schoolyard, hallways or on
field trips.
Many work extensively with special education students. They also provide personal
attention to students with other special needs, such as those who speak English as a
second language and those who need remedial attention.
Employment of classroom paraprofessionals is expected to grow by 15% between
2010 and 2020, which is about as fast as the average for all occupations. Growth is
expected to result from increases in student enrollment and increases in child care
and preschool enrollment.
Graduation requires the completion of a 66-credit curriculum consisting of courses
taken in the Early Childhood Education program in addition to a 21-credit core of
Liberal Arts and Sciences/General Education courses. Students may also choose to
complete a nine-credit emphasis area consisting of courses in World Language
(including American Sign Language), Special Needs Education, Office Technology or
Music.

overview Applicants to this program must specify either the invasive
CVT (Cardiac Cath Lab) or noninvasive CVT (Echocardiography)
subspecialty. In this program, you will learn theoretical concepts and clinical
applications of procedures used to diagnose and relieve the symptoms of
various cardiac pathologies. The program begins with one year of general
CVT coursework, after which, each subspecialty will focus on its unique
curriculum. Laboratory instruction occurs on campus as well as in
laboratories of area hospitals. Clinical externships will include assignments
in various local hospitals under the direction of an experienced CVT. The
Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs
accredited the invasive portion and echocardiography portion of this
program in cooperation with the Joint Review Committee (JRC-CVT).
The program has an alternative part-time enrollment plan.

Paralegal
overview The Paralegal associate degree program is approved by the
American Bar Association. This program prepares students for employment
as a paralegal in the legal community, in government offices or agencies,
or in business and industry. Courses are available days and evenings, and
selected courses are available online. Students must earn at least 10 Legal
Specialty credits (i.e., PLEGAL courses) via face-to-face instruction.
Coursework revolves around basic legal courses designed to provide you
with a broad background. The program additionally allows for options of
legal specialization. Instruction concentrates on practical, rather than
theoretical, aspects of law.
TeCHNICaL STUdIeS
Career outlook The use of paralegals permits more efficient and costeffective use of an attorneys time. Many legal office tasks can be
performed by a paralegal and billed at a lower rate, while optimizing an
attorneys time to perform activities that require a law degree. Although this
is a growing profession, competition in the job market is keen. Typical job
duties include conducting client interviews, obtaining case information,
performing legal research, preparing and filing legal documents and court
papers, and providing general assistance to attorneys. Positions are also
available in governmental agencies, legal departments of banks and other
private organizations and companies. Students receiving this degree are
required to work under the supervision of an attorney to avoid the
unauthorized practice of law.

Quality engineering Technology

overview The Quality Engineering Technology program prepares
students to systematically plan, evaluate and monitor the various
components of a product, service or process to ensure that criteria for
quality are being met. Quality assurance is the difference between success

are emphasized to reduce waste, improve operations, reduce costs by
minimizing resource use, and streamline business processes. Students will
be prepared with the tools they need to be successful in quality and
sustainable engineering technology.
Career outlook With the increasing trend toward globalization and
standardization across all facets of business, and as the need and
importance of international standards (ISO) become more prevalent, so
does the need for well-trained quality personnel. When students complete
the Quality Engineering Technology degree, they possess the knowledge,
skills and abilities to make their organization more efficient and effective.

biology and chemistry in MATCs Adult High School at the same time you are
receiving college instruction.
The Adult High School offers a complete array of high school courses
