Degrees and Pathways

There is a second web-based tool to look up transfer information: The Degree Pathway Query Engine.  This site will let you search or browse majors at all the state universities to see the components of the transfer pathways.

The best way to search is to choose a university and click search.  You will then see every major at that university.  It is hard to search by major unless you know the exact name.  For example Business is not a major but Marketing, Finance, Economics and Management are.

Here is a sample of what the Query Engine can show you:

Major Degree Institution AGEC Pathway Language
Requirement
Common Course Matrix Note
Accountancy BS ASU None TG-XR None   -
Aerospace Engineering BS in Engineering ASU S TG-XR None Engineering -
Art BFA ASU A AA-SR None Art (Fine Art) -
Art Education BFA ASU A AA-SR None Secondary Education - Art Education -
Art History BA ASU A AA-GR 4th Semester Proficiency Art -
Biology BS ASU S AS-SR 4th Semester Proficiency Biology -

In the sample you can see that for Accountancy at ASU there is not a AGEC built into the degree while Aerospace Engineering has an AGEC-S in it.  When a university degree does not have a matching 60 credit transfer degree it will be noted with TG-XR  which stands for Transfer Guide - Exceptional Requirements.  For TG-XR majors you must closely follow the university requirements from the beginning as they are very specific.  Art History has both an AGEC-A and an AA degree in the transfer pathway.  The foreign language requirements are also listed.  The Common Course Matrix is a link to a list of courses that are required preparation for the major. 

Try the Degree Query Engine out for yourself:  Go to the Degree Query Engine (a new window will open).
