A Two-Year Transfer Program Leading to the A.S. Degree

This curriculum is designed for an A.S. degree in engineering science with concentrations in the engineering disciplines of agricultural and biological; biomedical; chemical; mechanical; food process; electrical; and civil. This sequence of courses also meets requirements in the engineering-related disciplines of physics; mathematics; and computer science. Students entering this program should have the following high school prerequisites: one and one-half years of algebra (elementary and advanced); one year of plane geometry; one-half year of trigonometry; and separate laboratory science courses in physics and chemistry are strongly advised. All students should check specific requirements of the respective transfer institution before choosing a concentration in this program.

General Education Requirements


See General Education  in this catalog for a complete description of the general education and assessment requirements.

Recommended Sequence of Courses


(This sequence assumes any necessary developmental requirements have been met.)

Total Hours: 64


Note


1 Students not qualifying for ENGL 112 - Rhetoric and Research  must satisfy the writing requirements by completing either of the following course sequences: (1) ENGL 101 - English Composition I  and ENGL 102 - English Composition II , or (2) ENGL 101 - English Composition I , LITR 220 - Introduction to World Literature I  and LITR 221 - Introduction to World Literature II . If the latter option is chosen, LITR 220 - Introduction to World Literature I  and LITR 221 - Introduction to World Literature II  will satisfy the second writing requirement and the Humanities requirement for the A.S. degree. Students transferring to IU School of Arts and Science and Purdue School of Engineering are encouraged to consider option 2.

2 If developmental courses are required, more time may be needed to complete this program.

3 In the Mathematics A.S./A.A. degree concentrations, PHIL 213  will fulfill the requirement of a course from the Humanities, Science/Mathematics Liberal Education Broad Core.
