Engineering Transfer Core Curriculum

By choosing the appropriate math, science, and engineering electives in the 3rd and 4th semesters, a student can major in Chemical, Civil, Computer, Electrical, Environmental, Industrial or Mechanical Engineering.

All engineering majors have a common first year curriculum. The following pages list the typical second year curriculum for each specialized engineering field. By careful selection of engineering, mathematics, and science electives during a student's second year, with the assistance of his/her advisor, the student can be prepared to transfer to almost any college or university in the country. Most four year engineering schools have a "General Education" component that requires a broad and diverse selection of social science and humanities electives. It is recommended that students select SOCL-100: Intro. to Sociology, ECON-100: Economics 1, and HIST-100: Early Western Civilization, while at STCC.

Upon the successful completion of requirements for this program, the degree of Associate in Science in Engineering and Science Transfer will be awarded.

Engineering and Science Transfer Program Goals

Graduates of this program:

1. Are qualified to transfer to a 4-year engineering or science-based curriculum.
2. Are prepared to complete their Baccalaureate Degree in two additional years.
3. Have developed critical thinking skills.
4. Have developed mathematical methods of problem-solving.
5. Can communicate effectively, both orally and in writing.
6. Can conduct research from a variety of sources.
7. Are computer literate.

Notes:

1. BIOL-106, General Biology 1, should be selected by Computer, Electrical, and Mechanical Engineering majors going to UMass.
2. Computer and Electrical Engineers going to UMass should take CSCI-111 while all other engineering majors going to UMass should take CSCI-100.
