ENGINEERING
Associate in Science Degree AN
Purpose: 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.
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
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.
