University Partnerships

Wright College has developed partnerships with two area universities. Interested students should see a college advisor.

Middle School Teacher Quality Education Program (MSTQE):

This is a partnership program with the College of Education at Northeastern Illinois University. This program is geared towards students seeking a math or science middle school/elementary endorsement. Math and Science courses are paired and team taught by Wright, Truman, and Northeastern faculty.

The Undergraduate Research Collaborative (URC):

The Undergraduate Research Collaborative (URC) is part of a National Science Foundation grant program involving both community colleges and bachelorette institutions. Students who are admitted to the program have the opportunity to do independent scientific research. Students receive college credit as well as a stipend.
