2022-2023 91³Ô¹Ï Catalog [ARCHIVED CATALOG]

Engineering, A.S.

Location(s): AL, AN, LO, MA


The curriculum is designed to prepare the student to transfer into a baccalaureate degree program in engineering fields such as mechanical engineering, civil engineering, chemical engineering, aeronautical engineering, and naval architecture/marine engineering.

 

CIP Code: 14.0101

91³Ô¹Ï Code: 8310

Purpose: The curriculum is designed to prepare the student to transfer to a bachelor’s degree program in an Engineering discipline. Some of the Engineering disciplines are aerospace engineering, biomedical engineering, chemical engineering, civil engineering, computer engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and systems engineering. It is highly recommended that students consult with an Engineering faculty advisor prior to selecting their courses to ensure maximum transferability.

Transfer Information: Students are advised to work closely with the faculty and counseling staff for program and course scheduling. Electives should be chosen carefully to meet requirements of the transfer institution. The responsibility for proper course selection rests with the student.

Recommended Preparation: High school courses: 4 units of English, 2 units of algebra, 1 unit of geometry, 1 unit of trigonometry, 1 unit of laboratory science (chemistry or physics).

Completion Requirements: Grades of “C” and above are required in courses intended to be transferred for credit to a baccalaureate degree-granting college/university.

Two Years


Total credits for the A.S. Degree in Engineering: 65-70 credits


1ÌýPlan to takeÌýtwo courses out of these three (CHM 111 Ìý, PHY 241 ,ÌýPHY 242 ). For most engineering disciplines, all three are required. The third science will be taken as part of the Engineering/Technical Electives.Ìý If your engineering discipline does not require CHM 111 , then take PHY 241 Ìýin the second semester.Ìý Electives should be selected with advice of a counselor or academic advisor to meet requirements of the transfer institution.

2ÌýSee humanities/fine arts courses listed underÌýGeneral Education Electives . Students must choose courses from two of the three areas listed. Credit will not be applied if student takes two courses from the same area. Electives should be selected with advice of a counselor or academic advisor to meet requirements of the transfer institution.

3ÌýThere should be 22Ìýto 26 credits of Engineering/Technical electives which results in six or seven classes.Ìý These Engineering/Technical Electives should be chosen carefully in conjunction with an advisor. Consult the requirements of the transfer institution. Engineering/Technical Electives:ÌýBIO 101 ,ÌýBIO 206 ,ÌýCHM 111 ÌýCHM 112 ,ÌýCHM 241 ,ÌýCHM 242,  ÌýCHM 245 ,ÌýCHM 246 ,ÌýCIV 240 ,CIV 225 ,ÌýCIV 226 ,ÌýCIV 280 ,ÌýCSC 221 ,ÌýCSC 222 ,ÌýCSC 223 ,ÌýCST 100 , CST 110 ,ÌýEGR 122 ,ÌýEGR 125 ,ÌýÌýEGR 206 ,ÌýEGR 240 ,ÌýEGR 245 ,ÌýEGR 246 ,ÌýEGR 248 , EGR 270 ,ÌýEGR 271 ,ÌýEGR 272 ,ÌýGOL 105 ,ÌýMTH 265 ,ÌýMTH 266 ,ÌýMTH 288 ,PHY 242 ,ÌýPHY 243 .Ìý

4 Select any HIS courseÌýlisted under the social/behavioral science courses inÌýGeneral Education Electives . Elective should be selected with advice of a counselor or faculty advisor to meet the requirements of the transfer institution.

5ÌýMath course should be chosen based on engineering discipline and transfer institution.Ìý For most engineering disciplines, more than one course will be required.Ìý The additional math courses needed will fall under the Engineering/Technical Elective. Electives should be selected with advice of a counselor or academic advisor to meet requirements of the transfer institution.

6ÌýSelect any course listed under footnote #3. This elective is not needed if selections for all other requirements total 65Ìýcredits or more.
