Engineering is a broad discipline that prepares students for rewarding careers in almost any industry. An Engineering degree is intended for
students with a strong scientific background to apply their skills to solving real-world problems. The two-year program provides a firm
foundation in physics and core engineering curriculum, allowing students to transfer seamlessly to most four-year institutions and be
successful.
Students will learn how to analyze internal and external forces acting on structures and machines, including consideration for the behavior of
fluids and the transfer of energy. Computing plays an increasing role in engineering professions and this is reflected in the program, with
introductory courses in several commonly used software packages. In addition to the theory, opportunities will be provided for practical
application of the engineering design process through a variety of projects designed to connect concepts with hands-on experiences. These
opportunities allow students to combine their creative and analytical skills while gaining real problem solving experience.
PROGRAMS and DEGREE REQUIREMENTS:
There is one program option for Engineering. The Associate of Science requires 64 credits over 4 recommended semesters.
