Franklin University partners with ATIC

Franklin University, a Columbus-based private university with a campus in Beavercreek, has announced an educational partnership with the Advanced Technical Intelligence Center (ATIC), a Beavercreek-based school that trains people for careers as intelligence analysts.

The partnership includes a tuition discount for all ATIC faculty, staff, students and alumni who enroll in a Franklin degree program, university officials said. In addition, graduates of ATIC’s Analyst Boot Camp program are eligible to receive transfer credits at Franklin University.

Officials said the partnership provides ATIC employees and graduates with the benefit of reduced tuition rates for both undergraduate and graduate programs at Franklin, as well as the acceptance of 12 credits of undergraduate credit and eight credits of graduate credits for a number of Franklin’s undergraduate and Master of Public Administration programs.

By partnering with Franklin, ATIC employees and graduates can earn a bachelor’s or master’s degree that increases their value to national, state and local agencies, as well as contractors, supporting critical missions throughout the intelligence community, officials said.

ATIC, begun and sustained with the help of government funding, collaborates with companies, universities and other partners to offer training programs.
