Applied Pre-Engineering - AAS

Instructional Program (CIP)

Description

The Associate of Applied Science Degree in Applied Pre-Engineering is designed to provide students with a working knowledge of engineering concepts and prepare them to transfer into a university engineering program.

Note: Students can complete an AGEC while earning the AAS in Applied Pre-Engineering.

Always work with your advisor to ensure that the general education courses selected will transfer to your chosen university.
