Associate of Engineering
The Associate of Engineering degree program is designed to prepare students with a solid foundation in engineering. It provides students with a strong curriculum that will prepare them for potential acceptance into 4-year ABET-accredited schools of engineering and other related programs. This program incorporates four engineering tracks: Biomedical Engineering (BE), Computer Engineering (CE), Electrical Engineering (EE), and Mechanical Engineering (ME).
NOTE: A minimum grade of C is required for all ENGR courses.
