The certificate will prepare students for further coursework in engineering and other STEM areas, as well as for internship opportunities. Completion of the certificate will serve as a solid foundation on a student’s path towards an associate’s degree and/or transfer in engineering.\n\n**The graduate of the Certificate of Achievement (16+ units) in Engineering Fundamentals will:**\n\n1.  Apply fundamental concepts of mathematics (through calculus), science and engineering.\n2.  Conduct experiments and analyze and interpret data.\n3.  Recognize the need for, and an ability to engage in, lifelong learning."
