AA Degree in Engineering

Associate of Arts Degree - AA.ENG 

The AA.ENG degree is focused upon preparing the student for articulation into an upper division Engineering program.  A wide range of degree options exist within the many major Engineering disciplines, for example students can select Transportation, Structural, Bridge and Highway Design, Waste Water Management….all within the Civil Engineering discipline. 

The programs course content reflects the detailed level of scientific and mathematical knowledge all Engineers are required to demonstrate in their first two years of study.  Most students are surprised to discover than technical course related to their field of interest in Engineering are not taught until the third year.  Transfer requirements vary between upper division Colleges.
