Engineering Transfer

The Engineering and Industrial Technologies Transfer program is a calculus-based, pre-engineering curriculum that will prepare a student to transfer into a baccalaureate degree engineering program at a college or university. It serves as a general guideline for transfer. The best selection of courses for a given student will vary depending upon the area of engineering in which the student is interested and the institution to which the student plans to transfer.

The program schedule that follows is designed for full-time students who have completed all prerequisites and who have no college preparatory education recommendations. Many individuals, especially part-time students and those taking college preparatory education courses, will require additional quarters of study. Students should consult their academic advisors for help in planning their schedules.

Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of an associate degree in pre-engineering, a graduate will be able to meet the goals outlined for the general associate of science degree plus the student will be able to:
  • Formulate the mathematical models for physical and engineering problems.
  • Analyze the mathematical models of physical and engineering problems.
  • Formulate kinematics and dynamics problems.
  • Analyze kinematics and dynamics problems.
Scholastic Preparation
Students entering this program should have taken all of the high-level mathematics and calculus-based courses offered by their high schools. Students who cannot test into Calculus I will need to take the necessary prerequisite mathematics courses before beginning the calculus sequence. Students should also have taken all of the high school physics and chemistry courses available to them. If they have not had adequate preparation in these areas, they will need to take the prerequisite chemistry (CHM 115) and physics (PHY 110) courses. Students who have not had two years of high school drafting or significant work experience in drafting will be required to take DFT 101, Drafting I.

* This is a general guideline for Engineering transfer. The best selection of courses for a given student will vary depending upon the actual area of engineering he or she wishes to enter and the college or university to which the student plans to transfer. All engineering transfer students should consult with their engineering academic advisor.
** Students who are not prepared for calculus must take the necessary math prerequisites before MTH 221. Students who need the College Algebra sequence and Trigonometry courses will need three years to progress through the course sequence.
*** Students who cannot test out of PHY 110 will need to take that as a prerequisite to PHY 250.
**** Some students may wish to complete the 3-quarter chemistry sequence for transfer purposes.
