Engineering is a profession in which knowledge of the mathematical and natural sciences is applied to develop ways to use the materials and forces of nature economically for the benefit of humanity. The Associate in Science Degree in Engineering provides the student the opportunity to complete all the lower division courses required for transfer to a university to pursue a degree in Engineering. Students will be building upon their high school mathematics and physical science background. Recommended high school preparation includes algebra, geometry, trigonometry, chemistry, and physics. Students who wish to transfer may want to consult their counselor to help them determine the best course of action for their goals.
