A.S. Degree - Transfer Program

Department:Engineering Science and Physics

School(s): Science, Technology, Engineering & Math (STEM)

MCC Program Code: EN01

Description
The Engineering Science Program at MCC is designed to prepare students for transfer to a four-year engineering school. The courses in the program are equivalent to the first two years of study for a bachelors degree in engineering. Students may choose any of the following tracks to complete their A.S. Degree in Engineering Science at MCC: Aeronautical/Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, or Industrial Engineering.

Program Learning Outcomes
1.Identify, formulate, and solve various engineering problems by applying principles of mathematics, science, and engineering.
2.Apply engineering principles toward designing a system, part, or process to meet desired needs. This could include analyzing a problem, defining the criteria for success, developing a model or simulation, construction, and/or testing through implementation.
3.Communicate effectively through oral and written media.
4.Work effectively as part of a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
5.Develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgement to draw conclusions.
6.Develop technical skills, computational skills, and capability with engineering tools, including computer hardware and software, that are necessary for modern engineering practice.
