Engineering, Associate in Science Degree
The Engineering Associate in Science is designed for students planning to transfer into an Engineering major at the university. This program provides the fundamental knowledge, theory, and principles of science and mathematics for an individual to successfully approach the solving of practical technical problems. Students will obtain a solid foundation in a comprehensive set of courses ranging from the disciplines of mathematics, physics, and introductory engineering courses with a variety of electives to tailor their interest and expose students to the many aspects of engineering, including discovery, creation of new technologies, and service to society.
Program Level Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this program, students will be able to:
- Identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems by applying engineering, science, and mathematics principles.
- Analyze empirical data to provide a basis for solutions to engineering problems.
- Create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet technical objectives.
- Communicate orally and in writing the results of experiments, projects, and data analysis independently and through group collaboration.
